- Anti-oxidants (remember eating carrots for your eyes?) are also a great source of nutrients for healthy eyes.
- If you don’t think you’re getting the right kinds of vitamins, consider taking a supplement or multi-vitamin.
Our Rebuild Your Vision Program actually recommends 17 different vitamins you should take to support your eyesight. While taking vitamins won’t completely correct your vision, they are still a very important part of your overall eye health.
Rest Properly :-
- Supporting your eye health is just one of the many benefits of getting enough sleep and taking breaks during the work day.
- While you shouldn’t be sleeping on the job, it is still important to rest your eyes once in a while! If you work on a computer all day, your eyes are probably under a lot of strain.
- Do yourself (and your eyes) a favor by taking a break for about 10 minutes for every 50 minutes spent in front of the screen.
- Simply close your eyes for a minute or get up and walk around the office.
- Focus on something that isn’t a screen.
- You can also rest your eyes by following the 10-10-10 rule.
- This means you should look at something 10 feet away for 10 seconds for every 10 minutes you spend working on the computer!
- Additionally, getting around eight hours of sleep a night is incredibly important for your eye health.
If your eyes are well-rested, they will be in much better condition! If you currently do not sleep enough or take enough breaks at work, try it out for a week and see the difference it can make!
Eye Exercises :-
Eye exercises make your eye muscles more flexible, and bring energy and blood flow to the eyes to maintain optimal vision. Regular eye exercises combat eye strain and also improve focus as well as concentration.
Sunning and Palming :-
Sunning and palming are also beneficial for eyes as these methods help reactivate and flex the eye lens and ciliary muscles.
Sunning will provide the benefit of the sun’s healing abilities and palming will promote relaxation and a sense of well-being. According to Chinese culture, the sun contains vital life energies that are critical to the health of the eyes as well as the overall body.
- For sunning, allow the sun to shine directly on your closed eyelids while breathing deeply. Do this once daily for a few minutes, followed by palming.
- For palming, rub your palms together to generate heat and then gently cup your palms over your closed eyes without applying pressure on the eyes. Make sure to cover your eyes completely so there is no trace of light. Do this several times daily while visualizing a pleasant scene.
Acupressure/Acupuncture :-
According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), malfunctioning or diseases in the eyes are often closely related to the liver and kidneys. There are various acupressure/acupuncture points around the orbits of the eyes, which are the bones that surround the eyeballs.
- Massage each of the acupressure points around the orbits of your eyes gently for five to 10 seconds. Start from point #1 shown in the image above and go up and outward massaging each distinct point. You can do this several times daily.Note: If you are pregnant, consult a trained acupuncturist before trying this therapy. Also, do not massage areas with scars, burns or infection.
- Walking barefoot on grass in the morning dew for about 30 minutes is also considered an acupuncture method to help improve eyesight as it activates the nerve fibers connected to your feet. There are reflexology pressure points for the eyes on the second and third toes. Plus, the green color of the grass is soothing for the eyes.
Ginkgo Biloba :-
Ginkgo biloba improves circulation and eye blood flow. In addition to improving your vision, it protects against problems like glaucoma and macular degeneration. Early research suggests that it may also benefit people with retinopathy.
Ginkgo biloba is also known to relieve anxiety and improve memory and thinking, especially in those suffering from dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
Take 120-mg standardized ginkgo biloba capsules daily in two or three divided doses.
Note: This herb should not be given to children. Also, people suffering from diabetes should consult their doctor before taking this herb.
Bilberry :-
Bilberry is another popular herb for vision and eye heath. It can also help improve night vision as it stimulates the regeneration of the visual purple component of the retina.
Plus, it protects against macular degeneration, glaucoma and cataracts. It is also good for retinal problems related to diabetes or high blood pressure as it is high in a chemical called anthocyanoside that has powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Eat about one-half cup of ripe bilberry fruits daily.
- You can also take bilberry supplements, after consulting your doctor. Generally, it is advised to take 160 mg of bilberry extract (with 25 percent anthocyanidin) two times a day, a few times a week.
Note: As this herb may interact with other herbs and medications, consult your doctor before taking it.
Almonds :-
Almonds are also great for improving vision because of their rich omega-3 fatty acid, vitamin E and antioxidant content. They also help enhance memory and concentration.
- Soak 5 to 10 almonds in water overnight.
- The next morning, peel the skin and grind the almonds.
- Consume this paste with a glass of warm milk.
- Do this daily for at least a few months.
