Simple Eye Exercises To Improve Vision

1. Blinking

Blinking is an instinctive, involuntary eye movement that helps lubricate and smooth the surface of the eye. In addition, the flash wipes away dust particles and bacteria that may accumulate on the cornea. Blinking while concentrating can impair the blink reflex, leading to incomplete or infrequent blinks. In this case, try to do small eye exercises while doing other activities that do not require vision.

2. Trace the figure eight

Tracking a figure eight with your eyes is a great exercise to improve your tracking. Pick a point on the floor about 10 feet away and track the figure eight with your eyes for 30 seconds, then change direction. Eye exercises also help with digital eye strain, reducing fatigue and dryness caused by staring at a screen for long periods of time. Plus, training your eye flexibility and control will improve your vision. Imagine a big eight lying on its side about 10 feet in front of you and track it clockwise and counterclockwise with your eyes. Start with 5 cycles in one direction, then switch to 5 more.

3. The figure eight moves away

The Figure Eight Rest is a simple eye exercise that stimulates and integrates both the left and right brain, stimulating the eyes while relaxing. It not only improves vision at all distances, but also improves focus during extended periods of focusing.

4. Focus Shift

Focus shifting is a simple exercise that helps your eyes regain the ability to quickly switch focus between objects at different distances. Start by focusing on a nearby object for 10 seconds, then switch to a distant object for 30 seconds. Repeat this several times, completing as many of each exercise as you can. This simple exercise improves your eyesight by strengthening your eye muscles. It also reduces strain when using digital devices such as computers and televisions.
