Maybe RH generally has a role to play in seeing with the eyes closed given its broader perceptual field? Just a curious thought.

Maybe RH generally has a role to play in seeing with the eyes closed given its broader perceptual field? Just a curious thought.
I found one guy that uses different stimulus to different areas of the retina in his light stimulation device. The difference between his method and the method that Zelinsky is using is that Zelinsky is not using flicker at all. She is just using the difference in the light intensity between different areas of the retina. And that seems to work for some reason.
Yes, I believe he is using binaural beats for the audio stimuli. And he is basing the visual stimuli on the same principle, a different frequency for the different hemisphere. But as we can see from the above image, binasal occlusion would produce the same stimulation for both hemispheres. It's hard to say whether one approach is better than the other, or both approaches have their own merits. But I think that they are both based on the same principles. And both work with the eyes closed.
“At my first visit, Dr. Adams inserted punctal plugs in my eyes,” Heather says. Punctal plugs are miniature devices placed in the tear ducts of the eyes. “The plugs immediately helped relax my sympathetic [nervous] system.” The sympathetic nerve network is what activates a person’s fight-or-flight response to danger or stress.

Dr. Zelinsky placed a pair of punctal plugs in his tear ducts to “calm his brain.” The following morning, “I realized my balance was 100 percent back. I got up from bed and then went back down just to test it. I got back up again and jumped out of bed, all the time thinking, ‘this is amazing,’” Adriaan says.
In fact, Adriaan’s balance was so intact, he was later able to stand on a chair and install mosquito netting in his backyard – something he would not have done before receiving the tear-duct plugs.

Praising what Mind-Eye’s “brain” glasses and colored filters have been gradually doing, RP says the punctal plugs placed in the tear ducts of the eyes during a second visit to the Mind-Eye clinic in Northbrook, Illinois had the most immediate impact. “Dr. Adams told me my head injuries had put me in chronic fight-or-flight mode. I was constantly stressed. But, after the plugs were inserted, I felt almost instant relief; the plugs helped my nervous system relax.”

For Hallie, “brain” glasses – as well as a set of punctal plugs inserted in the tear ducts of both eyes — have since quieted, or significantly lessened, many of her worst symptoms. “I have not been nauseous for months. I am also sleeping better, am less explosive, my reading skills are coming back, and my relationships, especially with my mother, have greatly improved,” she says. “The plugs seem to have taken Hallie out of the “fight-or-flight” mode that she had been stuck in,” adds Deborah Zelinsky.

In fact, the LaGrange Highlands, Ill, resident says she was tested and diagnosed with dyslexia – difficulty in processing words and, in her case, numbers, too – at age 20. Three years later, she received punctal plugs (tear plugs) at the Mind-Eye Institute to help resolve a problem with dry eyes, but the plugs appeared to do more than that.
“They seem to have wiped out my dyslexia, too. After the plugs were inserted, I started to comprehend what I was reading. I could spell. I could understand punctuation. I was able to do math,” she says.
“When the college required a re-evaluation of my learning issues to maintain my eligibility for specific accommodations, the same independent company that did the first test was stumped. I showed no evidence of dyslexia on the second test. The company said it had never experienced anything like that before,” Erika recalls.
What continues to amaze Erika is being told she is no longer dyslectic, after being diagnosed with the disorder earlier. “At the time, Dr. Zelinsky did a kind of EKG of my eyes to check eye movement and then inserted the tear plugs,” Erika says.

This is also interesting. Sounds like some sort of acupressure.
