How to improve vision at home and restore sharpness

Frequent stress, computer work, age-related changes, oxygen impermeability due to prolonged wearing of contact lenses adversely affect the condition of the eyes. To avoid surgical intervention, methods of restoring vision at home should be studied in detail.

How to restore vision at home

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

1. Establish nutrition by including foods with plenty of vitamins, amino acids, lutein, zinc, carotenoids and minerals in the menu.
2. Do eye exercises.
3. Establish a daily routine, alternate eye loading with rest.
4. It is reasonable to use drugs (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 faces 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. Myopic people need:

1. Work alternately on computer screen with rest. It is important to take short breaks.
2. Enrich your diet with foods good for the eyes - parsley, blueberries and carrots.
3. Do eye exercises regularly. One of the effective exercises is to look from a point 1 m away at distant and remote objects.

Hyperopia is the opposite of myopia. People with this problem can see distant objects well. Up close, the image loses sharpness. With age, farsightedness 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 in the menu foods containing potassium, vitamin A, ascorbic acid.
3. Regularly exercise for farsightedness. To do this, it is useful to look from near objects to distant objects and vice versa, to turn the eyes clockwise and vice versa.

Ways to improve vision in children at home have similar principles. It is important for parents to control the time that a child or adolescent spends on a TV or computer screen, his posture when writing, proper nutrition.

With retinal dystrophy, antioxidant drops are prescribed.

Violation of the functions of blood vessels and deterioration of the walls of the capillaries of the eye are called retinal angiopathy. If a pathology is detected, metabolic and retinoprotective drops are prescribed.

Instead of individual letters, it uses printed text 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 put at a distance of 15 cm from the eyes.
2. If a person has impaired visual function in only one eye, the healthy eye is closed before training.
3. With myopia, the table is put at a distance of at least 30 cm from the eyes.
4. If a person has impaired visual function in both eyes, but one of them is farsighted and the other has myopia, you should alternate training.
5. When they look at the table, they begin to read the text from the top row down. Determine the line of work (after it, the letters begin to fade). With regular training, the patient gradually descends and sees more text.
