A needlessly sad and painful parting ...
I have been a client of Michael's MicroPrismVision for more than ten years.
The process worked well for the first eight years.
My last two lens prescriptions did not function.
I need to be able to read street names and sub-titles and departure boards at a minimum.
Seven sessions between the first and the second lens prescription, and there was zero difference.
Middway through these seven sessions, I was asked to reveal what was goin on in my life that was holding me back in accepting the MPV process. The logic apparently being that the MPV process is perfect any flaw lies with me. The process that I had been pursuing with Michael derailed, and, after submitting a half page of deeply personal information to Michael, I felt framed as someone who was holding onto their trauma, thereby preventing the MPV process from working effectively. The truth of this I may never know, but it is crude and unkind and probably outside the professional remit of Australian optometrical practice to treat any client like this. As I said earlier, Michael's process worked for eight years, and then died for reasons I do not understand.
In my pursuit of lenses that worked, and to make sure that there as nothing fundamentally wrong with my dear eyes, I saw an opthalmologist and an optometrist, and they both claimed that my recently prescribed lenses were borderline legal for driving. I felt vindicated in ending my relationship with MPV.
I am pursuing a refund and I have had no reponse for one month.
I am also pursuing MPV through the Optometry Board of Australia and other relevant bodies. Michael has had dealings with the Optometry Board of Australia before concerning his communication with clients. Please refer to VCAT reference No. b99/2011.
For me, It is a painful end to a decade of my active pursuit of eye health with Michael, and this whole process of public review is horrible to endure, and yet my options are rather limited.
I will post updates as things progress. Keep well. Thomas.
FYI _ this review was written entirely without Ai. Just sayin …
