Summary: overall a good philosophy, but poorly written
Comment: I'm returning to vision therapy fairly nearsighted with -7.5 diopters in both eyes, but with memory of past success in vision therapy programs as a youth.

Kaplan takes a holistic approach to vision therapy, tying in emotional development and current life patterns to vision health. I too subscribe to a holistic approach, but I find myself unable to sit through the book's presentation for long: It's heavy on anecdotes, ruminations, reflections, imaginary stories, analogies and the like, but light on actual substantative advice. Ironically, I find this book on vision therapy surprisingly unfocused!

Only about 30 of the 180 pages are devoted to explaining vision techniques to practice, and even some of these are hidden within the text undistinguished. This sparseness is evidenced by the the length of book's appendix "Essential Integrated Vision Therapy Program": it's only a short column long.

I'd also like to have seen footnotes citing specific studies, rather than relying on anecdotes and the bibliography, especially in support of some of his more surprising claims, such as that iris texture reflects personality type (Rayid).

While this book does take a holistic approach to vision therapy -- which I think useful to anyone with poor vision health -- I'd look elsewhere for a concise and substantive book that's also easy to digest and apply.

Summary: I borrowed this from the library...
Comment: I didn't find this book helpful. The author proposes that vision problems are the result of emotional difficulties, or improper diet etc. There is very little reference to any exercises that might help. Mainly it consists of anecdotes, and is quite repetitive. This wouldn't be my first choice in vision improvement literature.

Rating: 5
Summary: Exceptional
Comment: Great Book ! Read it to see how your emotional and psychological nature corresponds and translates to reduction in your power to see clearly. This book is a definite buy !
