Many of us have unknowingly formed very bad habits when it comes to our eyes.
Eyes are designed to move constantly and not to fix on things and "stare".
Staring causes eyestrain, which in turn causes eyesight problems.
Here are some ways to improve your eyesight with exercises for your eyes.
1.
The Word Exercise - locate just one word on a page.
It should be at least five letters long.
What you need to do is stare at that word so that all of the letters can be seen, and don't move your eyes.
The word will start to blur.
Relaxing your eyes, let them move over each letter of that word.
If you then blink and allow your eyes to move, you should be able to see the word more clearly when you see it again.
2.
The Dot Exercise - locate a dot on a page and focus on it until it comes clearly into focus.
The dot will most likely become blurry after a few seconds.
Blink your eyes, close them, and picture the dot in your mind.
Then look at it again.
As with the word exercise, allowing your eyes to take the lead should help you to focus much better on what you are looking at.
3.
The Double Vision Exercise - focus your eyes, in a relaxed way and allow both of your eyes to focus together, at the same time on something.
This helps your eyes to work together as one.
If your eyes are used together this way, it helps greatly to improve your eyesight.
Too much strain on our eyes causes vision issues and many of us deal with that by getting prescription eyeglasses.
If you can do these simple exercises every day and keep in the back of your mind that you should not stare at things for long periods of time, it will go a long way to helping improve your eyesight.
