 Use these 4 Vision Tips to see better: |
|||
| 1. People always ask me what they can do for astigmatism. Here's one thing I recommend: When doing Eye Stretches (from Vision Chart Techniques in The Program for Better Vision) hold your head turned in each of these four different positions: To the right, left, up and down. When you find the head position in which it is the most difficult to do the Eye Stretches comfortably - that's the position to practice most. It'll work out the muscular imbalances that contribute to astigmatism. Practice often throughout the day, only 10 - 12 stretches each time, first clockwise and then counter-clockwise. (Not sure if you have astigmatism? Answer questions 7 & 8 from this vision test.) |
2. Using the Read Without Glasses Method? Try this: Hold the chart at arm's length and focus on your finger 2 - 4 inches iin front of your eyes. Try to get 3 dots on the third row of the chart (the row with the two large dots). You'll have to experiment with moving your finger closer or farther from your eyes and you might have to move the chart also. When you can get 3 dots on this row, you should see 7 columns with the center dot and the center column popping in closer to you in 3D. Converging in this way will increase the power of the method to improve your close up vision. Want to try the Read Without Glasses Method? |
3. Eyes straining at the computer? Prevent eye strain from building up: Shift your focus away from the screen iinto the distance (at least 8-10 feet away) and back again to the screen three to five times. Exhale as you shift into the distance and inhale as you look at the screen. Do these shifts every few minutes. It takes barely no time at all, but it breaks the fixed-focus staring at the screen. Practice these shifts regularly and you'll be amazed at how much better your eyes feel. And don't wait until you're eyes are hurting. Remember, an ounce of prevention....

4. Most nearsighted people have tunnel vision - they are over-aware of what they are directly looking at, and not very aware of their periphery - the total field of vision, all of the images that are reaching the eyes from the sides and from in front of and behind what they are looking at. Train yourself to be aware of your total field of vision. Imagine as if you are seeing everything all at once, as well as what you are directly looking at. The more you're conscious of this, the more relaxed your vision will become, the easier it will be to see and you'll also gain a greater sense of space and depth perception in your visual field. |
