Meir Schneider, born with cataracts on both eyes, vowed to see despite the odds. Five painful operations by age seven left him legally blind, able only to discern light and shadow. He was convinced he could learn Braille and insisted on attending sighted schools. At seventeen, encouraged by a high-school classmate, Meir learned exercises and techniques that eventually rewarded him with his dream - eyesight.

Inspired by his own success, he now helps others to see. Today, he wears no glasses and proudly boasts an unrestricted California driver's license. Miracle? Perhaps. But, it was his belief in himself that he could see that made the difference. 

His School for Self-Healing is a non-profit school that teaches and provides movement work, massage, and vision therapy in San Francisco as well as around the globe for a wide variety of disorders, diseases and injuries.

His devotion has rewarded him with the knowledge that he's made a positive difference in the world, a worthy goal of achievement.
