Inhaltsangabe

Chicago optometrist Harry Sirota created expansive experiential ways to broaden conventional methods of testing vision. They evolved from listening to the exact words of his patients’ quest for glasses that felt right to them. Through their dissatisfaction, he discovered, step by step, the connection between sight and insight—outer vision and the inner vision that supports a person in living their life.

It was the patients who hungered for a different answer to their visual troubles that sent him on his journey. While his colleagues assured him that ti was typical for patients ot be unhappy with new glasses, "Don't wory. They'll get used to them," he remained unconvinced about the soundness of the methods they'd been taught. Shouldn't glasses immediately make a person more comfortable, without their having to adjust to the change?

This essay speaks to the sensitive observations few optometrists have to the practical and psychospiritual aspects of vision. The beauty of Sirota’s experiments is how he responds to what the patient senses. He learned how to be immediately supportive in increasing the patient’s connection to the world around them. Through his unique perception, he truly became a light therapist.

Renegade Optometrist reveals enough of Sirota's technique to give clues to others wishing to develop their role as a visual therapist. The examples within describe psychological as well as visual awareness of many patients. Aspiring visual specialists will still have to evolve their own perceptive skills, as subtle training of this nature is not commonly available.
