Dear friends, let me give you some eye exercises, that has been prescribed by a yoga teacher. Please use this exercises only after the discussion with your ophthalmologist.
Exercise 1: Massage Close your eyes tight for 3 to 5 seconds, then open them for the same amount of time. Do this 7 or 8 times then keep your eyes closed and massage them with your fingers doing circular movements for 1-2 minutes. Make sure it is a light massage to avoid damage to your eyes. Another massage method is to press three fingers against your upper eyelids, holding for several seconds then releasing, Repeat this process five times. Exercise 2: MovementSit and make yourself comfortable. Then roll your eyes clockwise, then anticlockwise. Blink, then repeat. Do this five times. Exercise 3: Mark on glassSitting two feet away from a window, make a mark on the glass at about eye level ( a small sticker is a good idea). Now, look through this mark, focusing on something over yonder for 10 to 15 seconds, then come back and focus on the mark again. Exercise 4: Follow a pencilTake a pencil in your hand then stretch your hand out in front of you. Slowly move the pencil toward your nose, while trying to follow it with your eyes doing your best to keep it in focus. Repeat 10 times. Exercise 5: Writing on the WallOn the wall across from you, pretend that you are writing words with just your eyes without turning your head. It may be hard to at first, but after a bit of practice, it can end up being kind of fun. The bigger the letters you make, the better the effect this exercise will have. Exercise 6: Watching the clockPretend that you are standing in front of a really big clock, look at the center of the clock, then move your eyes to any of the hour marks without turning your head. Go back to center, then go on to another hour mark. When you hit all the hour marks, then you can stop. You can even do this exercise with your eyes closed. While doing these exercises might make you seem a little crazy if your roommates or neighbors spot you doing them, 10 to 15 minutes each day will really help improve the overall health of your eyes. It is important to do them on a regular basis rather than just once for an extended period. 30 seconds to a minute each hour would be ideal. You can do these exercises while waiting for the microwave to finish heating up your oatmeal or when your PC is booting up. After the first day, you will began to notice results. HOME REMEDIES FOR RESTORING YOUR EYESIGHT Prepare two small linen bags and put 1 table spoon of dill seeds in each bag. 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. Thanks for reading!
