Today, many people spend most of their working time at the computer.This requires maximum strain on the eyes, which makes us feel discomfort, dryness and fatigue.These seemingly minor symptoms are the first signs of vision deterioration.
Even if a person has 100% vision, he still needs proper rest for his eyes.Special exercises for the eyes will help you in this.
"Eyes work thanks to muscles, and muscles need to be trained," says the ophthalmologist."Eye movements are better to do in the morning or in the evening, before going to bed. Repeat each exercise 5-30 times, start small, gradually increase the load. The movements are smooth, without jerks, it is useful to blink between exercises. And do not forget to take off your glasses or contact lenses."
The 7 best exercises to maintain, restore and improve eyesight:
Curtains
Blink fast and easy for 2 minutes.It helps improve blood circulation.
I look out the window
Make a dot out of plasticine and shape it on the glass.We choose a distant object outside the window, look into the distance for a few seconds, and then turn our eyes to the point.Later you can complicate the load - focus on four objects at different distances.
Big eyes
We sit up straight.Close your eyes tightly for 5 seconds, then open them wide.Repeat 8-10 times.It strengthens the muscles of the eyelids, improves blood circulation and helps to relax the eye muscles.
Massage
With three fingers of each hand, gently press the upper eyelids;after 1-2 seconds, remove your fingers from the eyelids.Repeat 3 times.Improves intraocular fluid circulation.
Hydromassage
Twice a day, in the morning and in the evening, wash your eyes.In the morning - first feel the warm water (without getting burned!), then the cold.Before going to bed, do everything in the reverse order: rinse with cold, then warm water.
Drawing a picture
The first aid for your eyes is to close them for a few minutes and imagine something pleasant.And if you rub your palms and cover your eyes with warm palms, cross your fingers in the middle of your forehead, the effect will be more noticeable.
