The author contends that by performing his exercises most people can drastically improve their eyesight, even to restore 20-20 vision. Of course, there is the caveat that "your mileage may vary."
I was intrigued by all the positive reviews so for the price (I think I paid $3) why not try? I think I know why some people are impressed by this book.
This is not something you can test with double-blind experiemnts (how can you hide from a subject that she is actually performing the exercises), but I suspect the reason people experience improvement is simply that they stop wearing their glasses. If you remove your glasses, your vision will be blurred for an extended period of time, since your eyes have not had to work their muscles much. But over time these muscles will 'get back in shape' and focus better. So simply by going without your glasses for a month (even without his exercises), you will see improvement.
I am 50 and I had a very mild prescription (probably because I have avoided wearing glasses most of my life). I noticed that when I started relying on my glasses my need for them skyrocketed. After going without them for a month, I found my vision improved considerably.
Bottom line: Simply taking off your glasses and leaving them off altogether (or as much as you safely can) will probably accomplish exactly the same as these exercises.
However, having said that, this book will explain how the eyes work and how you should be mindful of not straining them by, for example, staring at a computer screen for 8 hours at a time. Taking regular breaks, weening yourself from your glasses, relaxing your eyes from time to time probably will help preserve them.
