About the Smart Vision Method ...
Tony did extensive research before developing the SmartVision Method. Let's start with a few definitions. To educate means to train the mind. The mind is defined as the seat of consciousness in which thinking takes place. The mind's eye refers to imagination, picturing something in your mind. So the SmartVision Method trains your mind to focus visually on something and then to imagine it in your mind's eye. Once you have mastered the skill of focusing on one thing and cutting out the other distractions, you will become a better learner.
We've said that your mind works like a computer. In Textbook of Medical Physiology Dr. Arthur C. Guyton states, "The fact that the basic components of the general purpose computer are analogous to those of the human nervous system demonstrates that the brain is basically a computer that continuously collects sensory information and uses this along with stored information to compute the daily course of bodily activity."
Within that computer our vision is one of the most important senses we use to focus and learn. Charles G. Morris says in his bookPsychology: An Introduction, "Animals vary in their relative dependence on the different senses. Dogs rely heavily on the sense of smell, bats on hearing, some fish on taste. But for humans, vision is probably the most important sense, and therefore it has received the most attention from psychologists."
Using your vision to focus on an object within the 'magic box' of the SmartVision glasses, you learn how to train your mind to focus. The fovea is the area of the retina of the eye that is responsible for our sharp central vision. It is used when we are reading or watching television. When you look through the magic box you are increasing your focus tremendously. You are not able to focus or remember much of what is outside the magic box. That is why it is SO important to practice every day with the glasses because you are training both your eyes and your mind.
There are scientific reasons why the magic box in the SmartVision glasses work. In Psychology: An Introduction, Charles G. Morris states, "For related reasons, vision is sharpest - even in normal light - whenever you look directly at an object and its imagefalls on the fovea. Here in the fovea, the one-to-one connection between cones and bipolar neurons allows for maximum visual acuity - the ability to distinguish fine details. You can easily demonstrate acuity to yourself by doing the following:
Draw a line on a piece of paper, and draw an 'X' in the center of the line. Hold the paper about 18 inches from your eyes and look at the'X' in the center of the line below. Notice how your vision drops off for words and letters toward the left or right end of the line.
In Textbook of Medical Physiology Dr. Arthur C. Guyton confirms, "It is in this region that the fovea is represented, which gives the highest degree of visual acuity. Based on foveal area, the fovea has 35 times as much representation in the primary visual cortex as do the peripheral portions of the retina."
To further support WHY a large amount of information that you focus on within the magic box remains with you, Dr. Arthur C. Guyton states in Textbook of Medical Physiology, "One can see, therefore, that the visual cortex utilizes transformed types of information to point up the most striking characteristics of the visual scene while neglecting the unimportant information. Then, the pattern of the visual scene can be extracted from this 'pre-selected' information."
Dr. Guyton also says, "In analyzing information, the brain depends to a great extent on 'patterns' of stimulation. For instance, a square is detected as a square regardless of its position or angle of rotation in the visual field. Likewise, a series of parallel bars is detected as parallel bars regardless of their orientation, or a fly is detected as a fly whether it is seen in the peripheral or central field of vision."
We hope that now you know there are verified scientific reasons which prove why the SmartVision Method works. If you follow all the steps of the SmartVision Method and you practice, you will master an incredible skill which you can use for the rest of your life. We wish you the best of luck.

This is a test to show how visualXacuity varies across the retina.
Your fovea picks up the 'X' and about four letters to either side. This is the area of greater visual acuity. The letters at the left and right ends of the line fall well outside fovea, where there are manymore rods than cones. Rods, as you remember, tend to 'pool' their signals on the way to the bipolar neurons; and while this increases sensitivity, it cuts down on the fine details in the signal that goes to the brain. Outside the fovea, acuity drops by as much as 50 percent."In Textbook of Medical Physiology Dr. Arthur C. Guyton confirms, "It is in this region that the fovea is represented, which gives the highest degree of visual acuity.
