Eye Exercises Featured in Men’s Health Magazine
Men’s Health Magazine – the world’s largest men’s magazine brand – featured a story supporting the use of eye exercises to improve your eyesight.
The story was part of a sequence called “12 Ways to Beat the Worst Health Problems” and concluded that the answer to bad eyesight lay with vision training. It told the story of Orlin Sorensen and how he ended up creating Rebuild Your Vision, the very same course I used to improve my vision naturally.
Here is the Men’s Health article as it appears online:

12 Ways to Beat the Worst Health Problems
Copyright © Men’s Health Magazine
When illness strikes, you can let your doctor wage war for you. Or – like these six tough guys – you can take matters into your own hands and think…
We lead heroic lives. Then we get sick. Achilles had his heel problem. Superman his allergy to kryptonite. Dylan his pericarditis (and worse, no words that rhymed with it). And our reaction to sickness – be it interstitial or interstellar in nature – is not a battle cry, but denial, then some creative profanity, then surrender.
Well, fellas, that plan is obsolete. You can beat any ailment – actually hold it at arm’s length while it snaps at the air like a baby bulldog in a Tom & Jerry short. We’ve assembled a group of men who have done just that to their worst health problems. The guys have one thing in common: They took control of their situations, found their own help, and found a way back. Are they medical miracles? Nope, just regular guys with great stories who want to show how you, too, can kick the tail of what ails you.

2. Bad Eyesight
Twenty-six-year-old Orlin Sorensen dreamed of flying combat missions like his grandfather, but his 20/80 eyesight kept him below standards for naval flight training (20/30, no glasses or surgeries allowed).
Commercial airlines, however, aren’t as strict – for several years, Sorensen flew for Horizon Air while wearing glasses. Then came September 11, leaving the airline industry decimated and Sorensen flying a lot less. “I was bummed, but I decided to try to turn my life around,” he says.
He used the time to put a curiosity to the test: Can a man improve his vision by “exercising” his eyes? Inspired by World War II fighter pilots who used vision-training exercises, and by a 1920 book by Dr. William Bates (The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses), Sorensen stockpiled information until he had enough exercises to begin his own program. “I trained my eyes to do things they don’t normally do,” Sorensen says. “I treated the program like physical exercise.”
He “worked out” 25 minutes a day, 6 days a week, for 30 days, doing exercises like slowly rolling his eyes in a full circle. The results? The navy measured his vision at 20/30, he no longer needs glasses, and he’s been accepted for pilot training. [Watch a video detailing this amazing transition.]
Make it work for you: Improving your sight by retraining your eye muscles is “very doable,” says William Moskowitz, F.C.O.V.D., an optometrist who has helped scores of patients with vision training at the Park Vision Therapy Center in Bridgewater, New Jersey. But since different vision problems require different programs, Dr. Moskowitz recommends you consult a behavioral optometrist. After you’re matched up with the right program, the follow-through is up to you – you have to do the exercises every day.
Where to Find Rebuild Your Vision
To get your hands on the complete Rebuild You Vision course, take a look at Orlin’s website. It’s only available online so you won’t find it in shops – and it’s now available as a free trial, so you don’t need to spend a dime to see it actually work for your vision.
It’s further guaranteed by Orlin Sorensen for up to one full year if you later change your mind, although it should only take a fraction of that to see real eyesight improvements.
As highlighted by optometrist William Moskowitz in the Men’s Health article, different vision problems do require different eye exercises, and Orlin made sure his course caters to this need. He has separate eye exercise routines to use depending on whether you suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness, aging vision and/or astigmatism. You can also take the course in conjunction with recommended vision training tips prescribed by your behavioral optometrist.
