It would not, because it is bull****. From Quackwatch:

and the legal action taken against them.
Yes, it is a good read, thank you for sharing. However, to make solid
scientific progress, just as one MUST question assertions, one must also
NOT ignore observations. At least the Germans [when they debunked 'water
witching'] added the caveat of, words to the effect, 'there may be more
involved than we controlled in our experiments' allowing all the
'observed' experiences to remain in tact without referring to those
experiences as 'bull****'.
Mankind will not make any progress in controlling life on earth with a
constant attitude of "that doesn't work" and "you can't do that"
That may be, but it is no more damaging than the OP assertion that
glasses are totally unnecessary and all you need are exercises.
I am extremely near sighted. I've done the exercises and worn the patch
to no avail. If the OP thinks it worked for him, then it did. I know
it didn't work for me.
What you're describing is called "determination bias".
