HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR VISION WITHOUT SURGERY - SIMPLE EYE EXERCISES WORK WONDERS 19-9-2011 We all know how important it is to keep our bodies fit. Going to the gym, jogging, and swimming are all on the "good for you" list of activities. But did you know that you can exercise your eyes as well? Exercising your eyes keeps them healthy, takes away eyestrain, helps you to focus and even improves your vision without surgery. Exercise 1. Massage First close your eyes tightly for 3-5 seconds, then open them for 3-5 seconds. Repeat this 7 or 8 times. Then close your eyes and massage with circular movements of your fingers for 1-2 minutes. Make sure you press very lightly; otherwise you could hurt your eyes. Press three fingers of each hand against your upper eyelids, hold for 1-2 seconds, then release. Repeat 5 times. Exercise 2. Movement Sit and relax. Roll your eyes clockwise, then anticlockwise. Repeat 5 times, and blink in between each. Exercise 3. Mark on the glass Sit about 50 cm from the window. Make a mark on the glass at your eye level (a small sticker, black or red, would be perfect). Look through this mark and focus on something far away for 10-15 seconds; then focus on the mark again. Exercise 5. Follow a pencil Hold a pencil in front of you on a length of an arm. Move your arm slowly to your nose, follow the pencil with your eyes until you can keep it in focus. Repeat 10 times. Exercise 6. Writing on the wall Look in front of you at the opposite wall and pretend that you are writing with your eyes, without turning your head. It seems difficult at the starts, but with a bit of practice it is really fun. The bigger the letters, the better the effect. Exercise 7. Watch the time with your eyes Imagine that you are standing in front of a really big clock. Look at the middle of the clock. Then look at any hour mark, without turning your head. Look back at the center. Then look at another hour mark. Do this at least 12 times. You can also do this exercise with your eyes closed. When doing the exercises, make sure that you're not facing anybody, or else that they know you're doing eye exercises. Otherwise they might think you have gone nuts. If you can spare 10-15 minutes a day to do these exercises, it would be very beneficial for the health of your eyes. But it is even more important to do the exercises regularly, than it is to do them for a long time. Even 30-60 seconds of eye movement every hour is very helpful. For example, when your computer takes its sweet time to do something, most people just swear at the poor thing and waste the time, but you can make a few circles with your eyes. Even the first day you do this, you should notice that, when you finished working, your eyes aren't as tired as usual.

Tie them up and put each bag in a cup with boiling water for 2 minutes. Let the bags cool a little bit and apply them on your eyes as compresses (the temperature should be comfortable for you). Cover the bags with a plastic wrap/bag and then with a rolled towel. Leave it for 15 minutes. Do it every night before you go to bed. If for some reason you do it during the day, stay in a bed for another 20 minutes after removing the bags from your eyes (still keep your eyes covered with a towel). Repeat treatment every day. Your eyesight will start restoring after the 20th procedure. The treatment is for 30-45 days.
