This guy holds some bizarre views on vision. He authored a book Take off your glasses and see. The problem is that unlike the Bates method which is notable there are no reliable references which discuss this guys work in this area. Liberman apparently is involved with alternative medicine and I only see unreliable new-age or crank websites that discuss his views on optometry. There is no scientific reception for his books or views so creating a proper article appears impossible. Because reliable sources are lacking I believe this article should be deleted. The article also reads as promotional. There are currently 15 sources on the article but every single one of them is a primary source or unreliable. Psychologist Guy (talk) 18:40, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete this somewhat promotional article with no assertion of notability. Indeed, the only possible notability I see is WP:NAUTHOR, but I didn't succeed in finding any reviews in reliable sources. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:24, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
