Here is the correct answer:
Bill > Does the preponderance of scientific evidence show that
negative corrective lens use accelerates progression of myopia?
I think the answer is YES.

Dear Friends,
In most cases I will not post out the logical fallacies of some people
posting on sci.med.vision.
Five years ago, I did sell a book, but I don't "bother" with it any

This statement is now out-of-date.
I asked Don to delete the price, and when I can get "How to Avoid"

Dear Scientific Friends,
Here is Chapter 11, to show how the concept of the natural eye as a
proven dynamic system -- has been implemented.
Certainly prevention is not easy.  No one has ever said that.

Dear Scientific Friends,
Subject:  EXACT definitions of words IS ESSENTIAL FOR SCIENCE.
Calling the refractive STATES of the fundamental eye "organic errors",
or "errors" at all, truly is a mistake.

Dear Engineers and Scientists,
Subject: Determining the "tracking" accuracy of a system is crucial in
engineering.
Here is a conceptual method for doing so.

Subject: Scientific freedom of Speech and Thought.
BOOK INDEX FOR:
HOW TO AVOID NEARSIGHTEDNESS
I post this to give you an idea about the scientific subjects covered

Bill has suggested that a SCIENTIFIC prevention study be conducted.
Well, maybe.
But let us ask the question about the type of person who would be
involved in a true scientific/analytic study.

Dear Engineering and Analytical Friends,
This Chapter covers the effect of perturbations on a long time-
constant system (control system).
Again I regret that the I can not supply the Figures here, and that

Subject: Lasik is a high risk operation.
If you keep your child's vision clear (under control of an OD like
Soon), you can also avoid Lasik (by always PASSING the required visual
acuity line).

Dear Prevention minded frieds,
Subject:  Here is a parent who "woke up" to the need for prevention.
Re:  Intelligently helping his child clear his Snellen with a plus.
Re:  This is part of Soon's advocacy.

Dear Judy,
You keep on confusing a SCIENTIFIC STUDY where you respect the
person's intelligence and necessary measurement skills (that MUST BE
TAUGHT) with your truly BLIND (in so many ways) "medical" tests.

Dear Scientific friends,
Here is a mathetical model of the tonic accommodation system of the
natural eye.
I regret that the "Figures" could not be posted here.

[FROM PREVENTION MAGAZINE, The December 1973 Issue]
"When Otis S.  Brown was a young boy, he dreamed of someday
becoming an airline pilot.  In fact, everything he did throughout
those early days in grade school was aimed at achieving that goal.

As we have seen, OBJECTIVELY, and as SCIENCE, we find that the eye
changes its refractive STATE with the application of a -3 diopter
lens.
This is OBJECTIVE SCIENCE.
