Tips to restore your eyesight

As people overuse their eyes, their vision will gradually decline. Once the vision is damaged, it will be difficult to recover. The more severe the myopia, the greater the impact on the person. It may even be hereditary and affect the vision of the next generation. Therefore, when mild myopia occurs, it is important to learn how to recover as soon as possible. Mild myopia is mostly caused by eye fatigue and can be recovered. You can use some tips to help restore your vision.

Tips to restore your vision

1. Gaze into the distance: Find a meadow or green tree 10 meters away: Since green has a shorter wavelength, the image is formed in front of the retina, which relaxes the eye adjustment and ciliary muscles, reducing eye fatigue. Don't squint or blink too often. Clear your mind, concentrate, and stare intently for 25 seconds to identify the outline of grass or leaves. Then place your left palm slightly higher than your eyes and about 30 cm in front of your eyes, and look at the palm lines one by one from beginning to end, for about 5 seconds. After looking at the palm lines, stare at the grass or leaves in the distance for 25 seconds, and then look at the palm lines again. Repeat 20 times in 10 minutes, three times a day. If your eyesight is severely impaired, you should increase the number of training sessions.

2. Crystal gymnastics: Hold your chin with both hands and rotate your eyes in the order of up, down, left and right ten times, then rotate clockwise and counterclockwise 10 times each. Find a scene 3 meters away, and at the same time raise your left hand and stretch it slightly above your eyes (about 30 cm). After seeing the lines on your palm clearly, look at the distant object clearly, and look back and forth between the two as quickly as possible, and repeat this process 20 times.

3. Massage exercises: You can sit or lie on your back, close your eyes naturally, and then massage the acupoints around the eyes one by one. The acupoints must be located accurately and the technique must be gentle, until a local soreness and swelling sensation is felt.

Rub Tianying acupoint: Use the thumbs of both hands to gently rub Tianying acupoint (below the eyebrows, at the outer upper corner of the eye socket.)

Press the Jingming acupoint: Use the thumb of one hand to gently press the Jingming acupoint (the root of the nose close to the inner canthus of the eyes), first press down, then press upwards.

Rub the Sibai point: Use your index finger to rub the Sibai point in the center of the cheek (one horizontal finger directly below the lower edge of the eye socket).

Press the temple and scrape the eye sockets: press the temple with your thumb (one horizontal finger back from the middle of the eyebrow and the outer corner of the eye), and then use the inner side of the second section of the bent index finger to lightly scrape the eye socket in a circle, from upper inside -> upper outside -> lower outside -> lower inside, so that the acupoints around the eye socket such as Zanzhu Yuyao, Sizhukong, Tongziliao, Qiuhou, Chengqi, etc. can be massaged. It is beneficial for pseudomyopia or preventing the worsening of myopia.

4. Eye washing method: First disinfect the basin, pour in warm water, adjust the water temperature, put your face in the water, open your eyes in the water, move your eyeballs up and down, left and right 9 times, and then rotate clockwise and counterclockwise 9 times. At first, when water enters the eyes, the eyes will feel extremely uncomfortable, but as the eyeballs move, the eyes will slowly feel very comfortable. If you feel difficulty breathing while doing this exercise, you may lift your face out of the basin and take a deep breath outside. This method can wash away harmful substances and dust in the eyes. It is also effective for mild cataracts and can improve the degree of refractive errors such as astigmatism, hyperopia and myopia.

5. Eye ironing method: This method is best done while sitting, relax your whole body, close your eyes, and then quickly rub your palms together to generate heat. Cover your eyes with both hands while they are still hot. After the heat dissipates, suddenly take your hands away and open your eyes at the same time. Do this 3 to 5 times. This can promote blood circulation in the eyes and enhance metabolism.
