Can't see all content here?


By Anonymous - Posted on 26 August 2009

If you register and login, you should have access to all the content on FitEyes.com. We also make some content available to users who are not logged in (and may not have registered).

All the content related to self-tonometry is restricted to users who have registered and who have agreed to our disclaimer. Some other content is restricted too. However, if you see a restricted article that you think should not be restricted, please let us know. (And if you see any unrestricted content that should be restricted, absolutely notify us right away!)

We restrict access to the content on FitEyes.com because there is some powerful information here and we have to be careful that it is not misused or misunderstood. There are regulations concerning medical advice and we want to make sure that all content on FitEyes.com adheres to those regulations.

This site is intended only for people who are under the care of an ophthalmologist and who are not relying on this site as medical advice.

This site has information that originates from ongoing research. People creating this content are typically participating in research under the direction of their ophthalmologist. As a research-oriented site, we often discuss things that are experimental and that are not part of standard medical care. Do not take anything on this website as medical advice! Much of the content is speculative.

Even if something sounds like advice, it is not! The idea behind FitEyes is that one day many of the things we discuss here will be available through your ophthalmologist. But today, these things are experimental and the only people who should even consider investigating the topics discussed here are those who are working closely with their ophthalmologist and who are suitable candidates to participate in medical research. Even for those people, nothing here should be taken as medical advice.
