Sorry dude, I can't figure out what you're asking.
I'll try and guess:

Are you asking: 'Do ODs know the cure of imperfect sight'?
The answer is: No they don't.

Not that.

Are you asking: What was this "some way of reversing this condition"
that Bates talked about?
The answer is: Resting the eyes and stopping the effort.

Not that.

Or maybe you are asking about strain at the near point causing far
sightedness and vice versa?

Yes.

Well, why don't you go to the OD and test
it out yourself? Tell him: measure my refraction while I strain to see
this page. Then tell him to test you while you strain at the distance.

Dr Bates did it with his friend. The two OD do it better than one and
patient.

. You can't consciously try and control your eye muscles.

The four recti muscles are controlled consciously. The two obliques and the
internal are actvated automatical.

That will just make things worse, believe me. Let them do as they are
doing. They are fine. It is not
their strength or ability to co-ordinate, or inablity to 'activate'.
It is not that they are 'weak'. They are strong enough already.

Yes. But it means "do not keep the eyes half open and do not try very hard
to see. Do something quite opposite.

It is simply that they are under a strain and this strain is due to a
mental strain. The strain causes imperfect sight.

Yes.

There is nothing complex about the problem. It's so easy.

Just follow the advice of Dr. Bates and you will see much better
results in your quest to cure your defect. You can't follow Bates and
Bereshak at the same time, because they teach opposite things.

They botch teach how to release the chronically tight muscles.

Bates teaches non effort, Bereshak teaches more effort.

It is matter of methodology. To make eye half-open you must activate some
muscles. To do the opposite you must activate the antagonistic. Both needs
"effort". Maybe that gentle are better. But at beginning you must lern to
fill the muscles. Bigger effort better filling.

More effort is always a strain which will deeply impediment your
progress.

If I try very hard to see in the "half-open" mode. To relaxed this mode I
must activate the antagonistic muscles.

I repeat, discard Bereshak Method. Follow Bates.

They are the same. The differences are in semantic, methodology and in
terminology.
