Day +671 : Vision-K Vitamin (1)

I am fine today.

I would like to tell a story from my brother Richard.

Can Vision-K vitamin cure the lazy eye?? If you have any disease that can’t be handled by your doctor, don’t worry; look for direct-sale "specialists". They definitely have some magic weapons(法宝) that fit all your needs.

Dennis (Richard’s eldest son) was diagnosed with lazy eye about 5 months ago. He is now under intensive treatment in which he needs to do patching exercise for 6 hours a day. He might need to do the exercise as long as one year to correct the problem.

A direct-sale agent convinced my wife to purchase a product which the agent claimed to be able to cure lazy eye. And not only lazy eye that it can cure, it is also an effective remedy for Astigmatism(san guan) and short-sightedness. Don’t believe? The agent will prove the effectiveness of the product with many real testimonies. A bottle of the product costs RM126.

Lazy eye happens because the muscle of one of the eyes fails to function properly. However, one still can have quite good vision through the other eye which functions well. So far the only way to train the muscle of the problematic eye is to patch the “good” eye, forcing the brain to send the signal to the lazy eye. This will force the lazy eye to become “hardworking” eye after a period of consistent eye patching exercise.

I am very doubtful that this Vision-K vitamin is able to force the brain to send signal to the lazy eye. If this is indeed the case, maybe you can consult the direct-sale “specialist” to prescript the product for the lazy one (may be you or your children) who are lazy to work, to study, to do homework, to attend cell group… After that, every parts of your body will be very hardworking :-)

To be continued and see you next post :-)
