So today, I want to help you navigate the eye care system. So we’re going to take a few minutes, I’m going to talk about ways that first of all, you can find an eye doctor, that you can maybe be compatible with number two, how you can help your eye doctor help you in the best possible way. And number three, if in fact, you do need surgery, what’s the best way to navigate? Alright, so let’s go to number one, how to find an eye doctor? Well, you know, the best way to do that I think is first of all, go on Google, and type in holistic eye doctor. Now you may or may not get somebody in your area, you may not even get a holistic AI doctor, you may get a holistic naturopath or functional medicine doctor or a biological dentist. And so at this point, I would contact whatever comes up on the Google. And I would contact that office and ask them for a referral is there anybody they know. And maybe it isn’t quite a holistic II doctor, but somebody maybe who’s a little older, maybe who’s a little more gentle, little more middle of the road. It’s kind of hard to find holistic eye doctors, because in school, we’re not really trained to look at Vision holistically, only allopathic Lee, but many times there are doctors that at least are you know, they’re more reasonable in their attitude. And if you can find somebody like that, another way to do it is through your friends through your community to ask around, you know, who’s somebody that I have a holistic philosophy in my health, is there somebody that at least isn’t totally extreme, you know, that’s going to really, you know, just recommend surgery since I walk in the door. And there are doctors eye doctors out there like that. And that may be the best you can do in your area. So that would be number one. The number two, when you go for your eye exam, I recommend taking a friend or family member and have a certain intention or focus on what you want to achieve. It could be, you know, I want you to check my health. I want you to give me a prescription for my glasses if that’s what you need. But I don’t want you to overcorrect me. And the way you do that is when he starts flipping the lenses, feel it in your body, feel it in your eyes. And you’re wanting to stay as close to the current prescription as you can. And you know, you need to stand up for yourself here. And you need to say I don’t want a super strong prescription. And most of the time, even if they don’t believe in you, or believe what you’re saying, if you are committed, because you know, the stronger the prescription you get,
