Often times people who suffer from myopia believe that prescription glasses or corrective lenses are the only way to go.
However, you will find that corrective lenses only help to relieve the symptoms and are not a myopia cure.
People with prescription glasses will later on have their lenses upgraded or replaced because their vision problem is getting worse.
Surgery on the other hand may be considered, but it is also a given fact that along with surgery are risks that you can very well do without.
So if surgery or corrective lenses are not the solution to the problem, then what is? People often overlook the natural methods that can even be more effective than glasses or surgery.
