How do I know my vision is improving?
• Your Personal Eye Trainer measures your visual improvement using a near eye chart:
• • Near Visual Acuity chart – This chart tests your ability to identify small objects (small black letters or numbers over white background).

You may start noticing visual improvement as soon as 2 weeks! You can also assess your improvement by selecting near objects that you see in your daily life and view them over time without your reading glasses, making note of the improvement.

How much improvement in my vision should I expect at the end of the training?
• The average improvement that is experienced during the NewVision Training Program is approximately two (2) lines on the near Eye Chart. This means that after the training you may be able to read print that is almost half the size you could read before. However, the amount of improvement varies between individuals.

At the end of the NewVision Training Program, you can expect to have sharper and brighter near vision without reading glasses.
