Vision Restoration by Nagata Optical

Nagata Optical is an official retailer of F-Sonic (Futawa Sonic), an ultrasonic vision treatment machine approved by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.

We work with our customers to restore their vision with a combination of F-Sonic, eye exercises, and lifestyle habit improvement.

Our method of vision restoration is especially effective for:

  • Children still in their growing stage
  • Teens with long study hours
  • Office workers involved in near-distance work (PC, paperwork, etc.)
  • Anyone who wants to stop further progress of nearsightedness
  • Anyone who suffers from eye strain
  • Anyone who uses computers or smartphones for long hours daily.

If you are any of the above, there is a chance that your vision may recover.

How Does Vision Restoration Work?

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is reported to develop with the eye's axial length growth. The way an eye's axial length grows is primarily dependant genetic inheritance.

However, other causes also exist. For example, if a child regularly plays a handheld game or study with bad posture for long hours, the eye muscles become stiff. This also applies for adults who work on computers or paperwork every day.

When eye muscles stiffen, it becomes difficult for the eye to match the focal point, causing transient myopia. It is possible to prevent transient myopia by frequent eye exercises, such as looking into the distance and rotating your eyes for 5 minutes after every half hour of near-distance work. But for most people, this is not a realistic routine, especially in this day in age when the idea of a "quick break" involves browsing on a smartphone.

This lifestyle leads to vision deterioration. Even if the condition started out as "transient myopia," if left alone, the vision becomes fixated, turning into real nearsightedness.

Unfortunately, if most of your family members and relatives are extremely nearsighted, it is most likely that your nearsightedness is inherited and cannot be significantly improved.

However, if you used to have good eyesight but your vision deteriorated in recent years, and if you are involved in frequent near-distance work, there is a good chance that our method will help restore your vision.

What is F-Sonic?

F-Sonic (Futawa Sonic) is an ultrasonic medical equipment approved by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare for "suppression and mitigation of transient myopia." Developed in 1962, over 400,000 F-Sonics have been sold in Japan, especially after being introduced in numerous magazines and TV shows. At Nagata Optical, we carry the latest, Japan-manufactured model of F-Sonic.

How Does F-Sonic Work?

F-Sonic deeply micromassages your eyes with 12kHz ultrasound, especially working on the ciliary muscle--the muscle responsible for enabling the eye to focus on various distances. Removing the stiffness of your eyes and blood vessels leads to increased blood flow in your eyes, promoting healthy cell function. By revitalizing the cells in the retina, optic nerve, and ciliary muscle, F-Sonic works to restore your vision to the point before bad eyesight stuck.

Advantages of F-Sonic

  • You only need to hold it to your eye for 10 minutes every day.
  • Ultrasonic massage treatment is safe and has no reported side effects.
  • Removing eye strain often also alleviates migranes, nausea, and stiff shoulder.
  • One F-Sonic can be used by the whole family.
  • After regular use of F-Sonic, the restored vision will not deteriorate as easily.
  • You can test F-Sonic at no cost before you decide if F-Sonic is right for you.

Although F-Sonic is a time-tested, effective method for vision restoration for most clients, individual results vary.

At Nagata Optical, we first guide our clients to try out F-Sonic inside the store, then perform a quick eye exam. Over 90% of our clients experience better vision with just one use. If F-Sonic did work for you, we will lend you F-Sonic for 1 week, free of charge.

We will also give tips on eye exercises and lifestyle improvement when lending out F-Sonic. After 1 week, we will check your vision once again. You can decide for yourself if F-Sonic works for you.

Please schedule an appointment if you are interested in vision restoration trial. It usually takes approximately 90 minutes.
