VISION FOR LIFE
DR. MEIR SCHNEIDER
Founder and Director, School of Self Healing
United States
Born blind to deaf parents, Meir Schneider underwent a series of painful operations as a young child and was left with 99% scar tissue on the lenses of his eyes, resulting in his being declared incurably blind. At the age of seventeen, he discovered how to improve his vision naturally from 1% to 70% of normal vision.
Today Meir Schneider, Ph.D. drives a car, reads, and enjoys the benefits of full natural vision. His contributions to the field of self-healing are recognized by alternative health practitioners and medical doctors around the world.
His best-selling book Vision for Life presents an approach to eye health for people with 20/20 vision who wish to perfect their vision, as well as people who see poorly and would like to improve their eyesight.
Meir Schneider recognized early that all parts of the body need exercise for optimal health, and the eyes are no different. Today, he and his clients prove time and time again how much vision can improve with exercise.
Clients of the Meir Schneider Self-Healing Method experience their own capacity to bring about recovery, reversing the progress of a wide range of degenerative conditions including eye disease. Based in part on the established Bates Method of eyesight improvement and in part on his own professional and personal discoveries, Meir Schneider's pioneering approach has helped thousands of people successfully treat a host of eye problems, including near- and farsightedness, astigmatism, lazy eye, double vision, glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, retinal detachment, retinitis pigmentosa, and nystagmus.

SEEING IN STEREO
Play Your Way to Better Vision
FERNANDA LEITE
Behavioral Optometrist, Self-Healing Instructor and Vision Educator
Brazil
Vision is the connection between sight and body action. There is a quality in the visual system that allows us to see and interact in the world from the full sensation of space, depth and volume. This quality depends on our binocular vision and is called stereopsis - "seeing solid" in Latin. It builds intelligent and skillful bodies, as well as influences the quality of most visual skills.
In this fun, interactive workshop, Fernanda Leite, a trained Optometrist and Self-Healing Instructor specializing in vision education, offers some simple assessment elements, as well as fun exercises for maintaining and improving binocular quality for good stereopsis.

HEALING THROUGH THE EYES
Of Feelings, Emotions and Things We Can't See
AINHOA DE FEDERICO
Director, International Center for Vision Coaching
Mexico
More than 80% of vision problems have an emotional cause. Often, they arise during stressful times as the body’s way of coping with something you can’t — or don’t want — to see. And nothing every truly goes away until it has taught us what we need to know.
Nearly all visual symptoms can be linked to a specific emotion. By identifying and releasing these trapped emotions, you can remove one of the main causes of your vision issues and take a crucial step toward seeing clearly again — naturally.
This fascinating interactive session, led by Dr. Ainhoa de Federico, creator of the ClearSight Method and Director of the International Center for Vision Coaching, dives deep into the emotional root cause of more than 20 of the most prevalent eye symptoms.
