About Greg Marsh and Better Eyesight Now

Greg Marsh first got glasses in third grade. By high school he was so nearsighted he had to stand next to the eye chart to make out the big "E". His prescription got up to -12 and -14 diopters, plus astigmatism. When Greg was drafted for the U.S. Army toward the end of the Vietnam War, he was disqualified due to poor eyesight.

After college, Greg came across a book about the Bates Method of Natural Vision Improvement. As an engineer he tended to look at things as exacting black-or-white, but this book seemed to have only shades of gray. He bought the book out of a discount bin with the intention of proving it wrong, but found the Bates teacher who wrote it to be compassionate and sincere. She gave many examples about people getting out of glasses, and also told about people recovering from more severe visual problems that had affected their ability to lead a normal life.

After that, Greg promptly acquired every book he could find on Natural Vision Improvement, went to a seminar, followed an audio "eye exercise" program and explored things on his own. He knew improving his vision was possible because of encouraging "flashes" of clarity, but for a long time real progress was elusive. 

Greg began a 25-year study of martial arts, meditation, and other natural healing approaches in his search for good vision. He found the holistic notion of "letting go" to be a very helpful bridge to better understand the relaxation techniques of the Bates Method. These insights plus study with Natural Vision Teachers finally brought faster progress.

Greg went on to become a Certified Natural Vision Teacher himself and founded the Vision Improvement Center in Fort Collins, Colorado. He offers individual consultations by phone and in person, group workshops and the home study CD programs. Greg’s background in martial arts and meditation has enabled him to become quite skilled at helping people get to a receptive state of mind so vision improvement can take place more quickly and easily.

In 2006, Greg Marsh created the top selling 6-CD program "Secrets of Regaining Your Vision Naturally" for Mercola.com. With 1.5 million subscribers, Dr. Mercola operates one of the world's most popular natural health websites. "Reclaim Your Vision Naturally" is Greg's updated and improved home study program, now including an easy-to-follow 60 page guidebook. It incorporates feedback from hundreds of users of the Mercola.com program.

Natural Vision Improvement is an educational approach and not a substitute for regular checkups from your eye doctor.
