In this episode, I share some updates (including a big announcement!) and address the mental/emotional aspects of astigmatism, which is a common vision problem that can often accompany nearsightedness or farsightedness.

Certain personality traits like indecision, self-doubt, and confusion can sometimes contribute to astigmatism, so practicing decisiveness, self-confidence, and clarity may help alleviate astigmatism on a deeper level.

Dr. Bates' main advice was to "ignore astigmatic images", which is sometimes easier said than done!

To go even further into reversing astigmatism naturally with me and a small group, you can join my 4 week online class series this month called ALLEVIATING ASTIGMATISM going from July 28 to August 18, 2026.

John shares the story behind the creation of EyeQue with the late Tibor Láczay of Zenni Optical, the reasoning behind wanting to disrupt the ophthalmic telemedicine industry, and the positive implications of empowering more poeple to monitor their own vision from the comfort of home by simply using an EyeQue device and a smartphone.
