Because I work on a PC all day, I'm getting more near-sighted. This company (See Clearly Method) advertised on a local radio station that they could correct your vision without laser surgery, and so you won't need glasses or contacts. I called just to get more info, but instead got a hard sales pitch.

They wanted $10 so they could send me a video and other material and after 30 days, if I don't return it, I get charged three payments of $79.95. When I ask just for some literature on their results and studies, all I get is the operator asking me to simply start asking her questions over the telephone. I felt ripped off and I haven't even seen their product, slash, "method" yet!

I'm beginning to think the "method" is simply a new way on how to get money out of my wallet before I have time notice what is happening. Their website seems to imply your eyes will get better, but you seem to need the help of a doctor who will write certain prescriptions. This doesn't sound right. Has anyone out there actually purchased this "method?" Has anyone else felt or been ripped off from this company.

Hey Nate, thanks for the incredibly long sales pitch regarding the see clearly method. I think if this product were so good more people, especially doctors would be touting it!

Also Nate, you say that in order for a person to see results with the see clearly method(s), they have to spend half an hour each day for a month.
Well, VIT has a warranty that expires at the one month mark. If a person didn't see any results after that time well they would be out of their money because of the warranty expiration.

Another thing I am noticing is that no one really mentions anything about what the see clearly method is or what excercises you have to do. Its all about poor customer service and fraudulent billing. This tells me that the customer knew right away that the product was not worth it and wanted to get their money back...BUT COULDN'T!

ONCE AGAIN RIP OFF REPORT SAVED ME MONEY! THANKS RIP OFF REPORT! REMEMBER DON'T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT AND IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE..FIND IT ON RIP OFF REPORT CAUSE IT IS!

Worked for me I relasped

I tried the program for a few weeks and my vision began to improve after about a month I was able to do many tasks without glasses. After about 3 months I actually drove without my glasses. I went in for an eye exam and my vision had went from a -3.75 to -2.75. The doctor said it had nothing to do with the method, she said "Your eyes get better as you age" We'll I don't know what to say about that.

I relasped because I had some events that required razor sharp vision and I stared to wear my glasses again, it was supposed to be brief, But I got lazy. I am begining to do the course over and hope to stick with it. Everyone's experience is different so I won't comment, but I wanted to say, it did work for me, I have had nothing but a great experience with them, and their counselors. If I ever have a question or a problem, I call or email and talk to the same person.

I am completely satisfied, I now realize that it may cost more than others that have come to market, and that may be a true point, but this course and others like it do work. I am proof, I had great progress, it was my lack of comittment that caused me to stop.

There is tons of info I have heard from the actual Doctor's of the program. There is truth behind the exercises in this program. I know cause I have it. It works best for people who have small corrections due, to the fact they are just bairly in glasses.

It does work for thoes who have poor vision it just takes longer and anyone who has ever been on a diet knows if you aren't seeing improvement right away people tend to give up on it. The same thing hold true for eye excercises. And face it we are F**KING lazy. And most people don't have old RX's laying around to slowing move into. So yes some people need to get weaker RX's filled as the eye's get better. There is a list in the program of Doctor who can help thoes who want to cheeply drop into weaker RX's. but again it going to cost money to do so.

Alot of the info people want from the sales dept. can't be given. Not because of some conspericy but that info would be considered medical advise. Sales person aren't allowed to give med advice cause they are not doctors. The FTC (Fed Trade Commission) would hammer the company hard with finds if they did so. If you are tring to get out of glasses TRY THE PROGRAM. If you are not going to put 30 minutes aside each day for a month don't bother.

I no longer work with the company, But I believe in their product. I hate people who are quick to judge when they have never used the program. As far as Money motives. Half the population of the U.S. is in glasses and, the more you wear them the weaker you eye's will get. I thinks it funny in an industrilized country like ours we are so dependent on crutches. not just glasses but most medications as well make us dependent on a person, product, or company for releif or corrections. that is why glasses are a big business. Don't take my word for it do you own d**n research.

The three best things you can do is don't ever get glasses the first time, learn eye excercises, And like brushing you teeth keep doing them. The information is out there. You need not buy this program to get it but, this program makes it easier to understand. The Bates Method works also but its a little hard to follow. And you free to look at that book too.

Good luck to all.

Hey, See Clearly Method company did actually send me a FREE video; however, something is rattling around in there (broke, I presume), so I don't think I want to try and play it.

I've been doing a little more checking and found that a doctor/scientist named William H. Bates (no, not the submarine) wrote a book still available (Amazon has it for $7.00) about this very method. A few others (apparently legit--but maybe not--professionals) refined Dr. Bates methods. I don't know what they charge, but this is one of those apparently secret methods that the majority in the medical community disagree with and keep the Bates "method" from the rest of us because they want to sell glasses and contacts. If anyone out there has actually been taught the Bates' method or a revised Bates' method, then I would like to know about it. It smacks of a conspiracy theory, but there may be some benefit to performing such eye exercises or "methods." Let's discuss this.
