How to improve vision at home and restore sharpness

Frequent stress, computer work, age-related changes, oxygen tightness due to prolonged wearing of contact lenses negatively affect the condition of the eyes. To avoid surgery, it is worth studying in detail the methods of restoring vision at home.

How to restore vision at home

The problem of vision loss is familiar to many. There is no universal solution to this problem. Vision improvement at home should be comprehensive. For this you need:

1. Establish nutrition by including foods containing many vitamins, amino acids, lutein, zinc, carotenoids and minerals in the menu.
2. Do some eye exercises.
3. Establish a daily routine, alternate eye load with rest.
4. It is reasonable to use medicines (strictly prescribed by a doctor) and traditional medicine.

It is important to restore vision at home, taking into account the individual characteristics of the body. If a person suffers from myopia, he is faced with the problem of distinguishing distant objects. In this case, the image of things falling into the field of vision is clearly formed in front of the retina. People with myopia need:

1. Alternate work in front of the computer screen with rest. It is important to take short breaks.
2. Enrich your diet with foods that are good for the eyes: parsley, blueberries and carrots.
3. Do eye exercises regularly. One of the effective exercises is to look from a 1m distant point towards distant objects and back.

Farsightedness is the opposite of myopia. People with this problem can see distant objects well. Up close, the image loses sharpness. With age, hyperopia occurs in almost all people. To delay the development of pathology, it is recommended to take the following measures at home:

1. Forget coffee, alcohol, sweets.
2. Include foods containing potassium, vitamin A, ascorbic acid in the menu.
3. Do exercises regularly for farsightedness. To do this, it is useful to look from close to distant objects and vice versa, rotate your eyes clockwise and vice versa.

Ways to improve vision in children at home have similar principles. It is important for parents to monitor how much time a child or teenager spends in front of a TV or computer screen, posture when writing, proper nutrition.

Instead of single letters, use text printed in different fonts. Based on the book by M. Norbekov, vision training is carried out taking into account the rules:

1. With farsightedness, the table is placed at a distance of 15 cm from the eyes.
2. If a person has impaired visual function in only one eye, the good eye is closed before training.
3. With myopia, the table is placed at least 30 cm away from the eyes.
4. If a person has impaired visual function in both eyes, but one of them has farsightedness and the other has myopia, you should train alternately.
5. When they view the table, they start reading text from the top line down. Determine the line of work (after it, the letters begin to blur). Through regular training, the patient gradually descends and sees more text.

1. initial state: 2-3 days.
