Here you will find information and resources related to the method of curing imperfect eyesight developed by William H. Bates, M. D.

The Bates Method is a method to restore eyesight naturally—without the use of glasses, contact lenses, surgery or drugs. Conditions for which people have used the Bates Method, include such things as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, presbyopia, strabismus and amplyopia. People with more serious eye disorders like cataract, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and other, also claim to have benefited from the method.

If you are concerned about deteriorating eyesight, or if you are tired of wearing glasses or contact lenses, then the Bates Method is something for you. Similarly if you have frequent headaches or muscle pain, or if you are just generally interested in improving your health.

The Bates Method section of this web site contains introductory information about the method.

The comprehensive library section of this web site contains several classic books, as well as some medical articles written by Dr. Bates about his method. The library has a nice search facility which allows you to quickly search in the text of one or more of the books.

The resources section of this web site contains SwingBrowser, which can be used to reduce eyestrain while surfing the internet, as well as some very nice eye charts.

The downloads section of this web site contains some computer programs that may assist you in learning and applying the Bates Method, as well as preventing the common eyestrain from computer use.
