Gles: good, bad, or simply not a cure (just a support)?

Gles are not a cure for either far-sighted (hyperopic) or near-sighted (Myopic) vision. They just change the vergeance of the light entering the eye so that the image can form more clearly on the retina. Though they interact with the eyes and their function, they do not make things worse or better (i.e they do not lessen the degree of myopia or hyperopia). Gles that have the proper power for an individual, do not induce "un-natural" accommodation. I am an optometrist for 15 years now.
