In the forty-seventh episode of the Better Eyesight Podcast, Nathan Oxenfeld, Esther Joy van der Werf, and Dr. Ray Gottlieb read through the forty-seventh Better Eyesight magazine that was originally published in May 1923 by Dr. William H. Bates, the pioneer of natural vision improvement.

Exactly 100 years later, these three natural vision educators breathe life back into the words of Dr. Bates, and also provide some modern commentary on the topics brought up in each article.
