Double Vision

Many children and adults suffer from double vision which is often very annoying. One of the best methods for double vision is palming for longer or shorter periods of time. Any method of treatment which brings relaxation corrects the double vision.

Some patients are benefited by standing with the feet about one foot apart. the arms and hands hanging loosely at the sides, while they sway the body slowly, continuously. easily, from side to side. The swaying of the body from side to side lessens or prevents concentration or other efforts to see. Should this not be sufficient to cure double vision, one may practise blinking and central fixation on the Snellen test card with frequent palming.

While swaying before the Snellen test card from side to side, the letters on the chart appear to move in the opposite direction. When the sway is short and slow the whiteness of the letters improves, while the blackness of the letters becomes darker and the double vision disappears.

If the trouble is in reading, move the sight on the white lines in between the lines of print without any effort to read and observe the lines of letters which appear to be moving in the opposite direction. When successful, the whiteness in the letters appears whiter while the blackness of the letters grows prominent. The vision is improved and double vision disappears.

The imagination of a small "O" while glancing at the letters of the Snellen test card or while reading fine print is a great help in the cure of double vision.

A girl was suffering from squint and double vision. By frequent palming and practice on the Snellen test card with gentle blinking all the time, she was completely cured.
