How to Improve Your Child's Eyesight Naturally: A Thoughtful Parent's Guide Paperback - 2004

HEALTH / PARENTING "Janet Goodrich has raised people's consciousness about vision improvement all over the world. I highly recommend her innovative work." Deborah E. Banker, M.D., holistic ophthalmologist "This book offers valuable ways vision patients can be helped, rather than prescribing another pair of glasses." Patricia Joy Wermann, M.D. How to Improve Your Child's Eyesight Naturally should be a staple reference book for every household with children. This comprehensive resource teaches parents how to develop personalized programs for addressing their child's specific vision needs--whether it be preserving the current good vision, erasing astigmatism and blurry vision, or removing the need for glasses at all! Filled with practical and imaginative exercises as well as ideas on how to keep these tasks fun for children, this book offers everything parents need to improve a child's vision: - detailed instructions for reversing eyesight blur, - creative activities appropriate for each age group, - tips for adjusting living environments to support healthy vision, - easy-to-understand explanations of common diagnoses, and - hints for dealing with doctors. The seventy-five scientifically based vision games, such as "Zoo Train" and "Birds on a Wire," are fun, age-appropriate, and include corresponding songs to reinforce good visual habits. JANET GOODRICH, PH.D., (1942-1999) was also the author of Natural Vision Improvement and taught seminars worldwide on improving vision. Vision therapists in at least nine countries use her techniques. Her work continues in practice at the Natural Vision Improvement Center in Queensland, Australia.
