Leo Angart

In my opinion, Leo Angart is one of the best modern Bates teachers. I read his book and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of information presented. He explains the usual techniques for Bates method but he also introduced something completely different. I’m sure it’ll be new to most readers.

It is pranic healing. The idea is that our bodies are comprised of energy and every part of the body that suffers from some kind of disease or anomaly has some kind of energy misbalance, most commonly the lack of prana or energy in that particular organ.

The idea of pranic healing was introduced by Choa Kok Sui. He wrote several books on the subject and he gives a good intro into pranic healing.

So the thing to do is to perform special exercises with your hands in order to fill your eyes with energy. I know, we are getting here into advanced mind stuff but Leo Angart reports that one of his pupils was able to improve her myopia by 3 diopters in 3 days only by doing these exercises. They are easy to perform but they do require mental focus or concentration. You also have to visualize certain coloured flows of energy.

What's more, Leo himself credits his restored vision to these energy "exercises" (let's call them that for the lack of better word). While he likes Bates and his method he considers that pranic healing is one of the primary factors in restoring good eyesight.

Leo wrote a book Improve Your Eyesight Naturally that you can check out on Amazon.

He is not big on motivational staff, which is a good thing, too much of that already. His book is packed with techniques that you can start applying right away. There are also funny cartoons on every page. In a way, he is the man to go to for Bates method simplified concept.
