Some people can see the rings of Saturn or the moons of Jupiter with the naked eye even when wearing cheap contact lenses. It is not because of any superiority in the structure of their eyes, but because they have attained a higher degree of central fixation than most civilized persons do.

Not only do all errors of refraction and all functional disturbances of the eye disappear when it sees by central fixation, but many organic conditions are relieved. I am unable to set any limits to its possibilities. I would not have ventured to predict that glaucoma, incipient cataract, and syphilitic iritis (inflammation of the iris of the eye) could be eliminated by central fixation, but it is a fact that these conditions have disappeared when central fixation was attained.

Relief was often obtained in a few minutes, and, in rare cases, this relief was permanent. Usually, however, a permanent improvement required more prolonged treatment, and abstaining from wearing discount contact lenses. Inflammatory conditions of all kinds, including inflammation of the cornea, iris, conjunctiva, the various coats of the eyeball and even the optic nerve itself, have been benefited by central fixation after other methods have failed. Infections, as well as diseases caused by protein poisoning and the poisons of typhoid fever, influenza, syphilis and gonorrhea, have also been benefited by it. Even with a foreign body in the eye there is no redness and no pain so long as central fixation is retained.

Since central fixation is impossible without mental control, central fixation of the eye means central fixation of the mind. It means, therefore, health in all parts of the body, for all the operations of the physical mechanism depend upon the mind. Not merely the sight, but all the other senses - touch, taste, hearing, and smell - are benefited by central fixation. All the vital processes - digestion, assimilation, elimination, etc. - are improved by it. The symptoms of functional and organic diseases are relieved. The efficiency of the mind is enormously increased. The benefits of central fixation already observed are, in short, so great that the subject merits further investigation.
