How many of your patients walk in complaining of poor peripheral
vision?

And of all those who seek improvements in the sensitivity of their
peripheral vision, how many have glaucoma or retinitis pigmentosa?

After you taught them to increase their peripheral awareness, how many
showed measurable improvements in myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, or
cataract?
