title: Eye scan therapy for astigmatism.
abstract: Two earlier papers introduced a new model of functional astigmatism. The investigation that led to the model indicated a relationship exists between meridional eye scanning habits and the formation of functional astigmatism. The present paper reviews the model and describes a clinical study involving the prescribing of specific eye scan therapy on a meridional basis. The results demonstrate that therapy involving eye scanning procedures has a positive effect on the control and reduction of astigmatism.
