Leo Angart is a business consultant, author and trainer. Having worn glasses for more than 25 years he speaks from personal experience. It has now been more than 19 years since he threw away his glasses.

In this accessible presentation of the famous Bates method, Thomas R. Quackenbush (who teaches the Bates method in California and Oregon) describes how eyesight can improve naturally, at any age and regardless of heredity. This book is a wonderful tribute to the genius of Dr. Bates, who was a pioneer in discovering how vision becomes blurred and how it restores itself naturally to clarity and acuity. Now 80 years later, his findings and teachings remain light years ahead of our contemporaries. His approach to treating vision problems was truly holistic and the theme throughout this book is very much an extension of that holistic approach. Dr. Quackenbush is to be commended for his dedication in getting the truth out and keeping the torch burning in this "bible" on vision improvement.

Leo's approach is very specific. You will find exercises that work for your degree of vision problem. He explains how you can tone your eye-muscles, release tension and build up energy to regain your natural eyesight with simple exercises. The book includes simple vision tests that you can use yourself to verify your level of vision and monitor your improvement. Leo Angart's Vision Training approach is effective for: Near-sight: the inability to see at a distance, Astigmatism: uneven stress pattern in the cornea, Presbyopia: the need for reading glasses, Eye co-ordination: when the eyes point beyond or closer than the object of interest, Ansiometropia: when the two eyes have different degrees off visual ability, Amblyopia: also known as "lazy eye", a condition where the brain switches off the input from one eye, Strabismus: when one eye diverges either in or out.

Better Eyesight Without Glasses is not only the definitive source for the classic Bates Method, it is in itself a remarkable phenomenon. Dr. William H. Bates’s revolutionary and entirely commonsensical theory of self-taught improved eyesight has helped hundreds of thousands of people to triumph over normal defects of vision without the mechanical aid of eyeglasses. If you think that your eyesight could be made better by natural methods, you are right. After years of experimentation, Dr. Bates came to the conclusion that many people who wore glasses did not need them. He gradually and carefully developed a simple group of exercises for improving the ability of the eyes themselves to see, eliminating the tension caused by poor visual habits that are the major cause of bad eyesight. These exercises are based on the firm belief that it is the natural function of the eyes to see clearly and that anyone, child or adult, can learn to see better without glasses.
