Eyesight wears out over time, mainly when you spend most of your time in front of electronic gadgets such as your cell phone or computer. For this reason, it is important to exercise it because the eyes, like any muscle, need a series of physical activities to strengthen.
Lack of visual exercise can cause cases of amblyopia, a refractive defect such as myopia, astigmatism and hyperopia, or strabismus (crossed eye). Although there are treatments such as laser operations or prescription lenses, it is also possible to stimulate the neural pathways of the affected eye through eye exercises.
Recovering your sight can be easily done anywhere and at any time, as it only requires a series of exercises that we share with you below:
– Avoid pressure on your eyes by keeping them closed for a few minutes every two or three hours.
– Only with your eyes follow the line of these 16 eye gymnastics exercises.
– Give massages on special points. Using the tips of your middle and index fingers, lightly press the eye area for eight times. Prevents the sensation from being unpleasant. After that, with the tip of your index fingers press the point for two times.
– Walk more often.
– Drink carrot juice with a few drops of olive oil.
– Soak your eyes with hot water.
– Do not use the computer two hours before going to bed.
– Reduces tension and stress as much as possible.
– Do the Indian exercise “Trataka”: Set a direct point to use as a focus. Put as much concentration as possible on this point – a small object, the light of a candle, a black dot. This will strengthen vision and stimulate the third eye –treataka–. When your eyes start to get tired, close them and relax. The exercise consists of paying attention to an object to purify the mind. Avoid doing it in front of a mirror, as it can trigger a psychotic break.
