investigating, among other things, the following unanswered questions:
1. To be a controlled experiment the study would need to include a
comparison group consisting of people with similar vision problems
who do not receive any EFT treatment for 8 weeks. The responses of
these people would be studied before and after this 8 week period in
order to find out if any improvement occurred spontaneously over
time (or any symptom worsening).
2. It would also be valuable to obtain some objective evidence of the
changes reported in the experiment by having formal eye
examinations administered before the participants learn EFT and
again 8 weeks after learning it, with the results formally compared by
a vision specialist.
3. In addition,  expectation effects could be at least partially ruled
out by providing a third group of participants who did not know EFT
and had absolutely no positive expectations concerning it. This would
help to rule out the effects of positive suggestion.
4. The high dropout rate in this experiment should also be
investigated. This might be done by comparing the dropout rate in
the present experiment with the dropout rate of a group people
practicing EFT for reasons quite unrelated to vision (who also used
written instructions to make the conditions comparable). It would
also be desirable to include questionnaires concerning the reasons for
the dropout rate in more detail in order to study the correlations
between the tendency to drop out of the study and such factors as
negative reactions to the EFT process itself or to emotional material
being unearthed that the participant found difficult to deal with, etc.
(All of these factors could be formally studied, producing a publishable
study, if sufficient funding were available.)
