Nowadays, many people spend most of their working time in front of the computer.This requires maximum eye strain, which causes discomfort, dryness and fatigue.These seemingly minor symptoms are the first signs of vision loss.
Even if you have 100% vision, you still need adequate rest for your eyes.Special eye exercises help with this.
"The eye works thanks to the muscles, and the muscles need to be trained," says the ophthalmologist."It's better to do eye exercises in the morning or at night, before going to bed. Repeat each exercise 5-30 times, start small, gradually increase the load. The movements are smooth, jerk-free, it's useful to blink between exercises. And don't forget to take off your glasses or contact lenses."
7 Best Practices to Maintain, Restore and Improve Vision:
Curtains
Blink quickly and easily for 2 minutes.It helps improve blood circulation.
Look out the window
We make dots from plasticine and carve them on glass.We select a distant object outside the window, look into the distance for a few seconds, and then turn our gaze to the point.Later you can complicate the load - focus on four objects at different distances.
Big eyes
We sit up straight.Close your eyes tightly for 5 seconds, then open them wide.Repeat 8-10 times.It strengthens the eyelid muscles, improves blood circulation, and helps to relax the eye muscles.
Massage
Lightly press the upper eyelid with three fingers of both hands;After 1-2 seconds, remove your fingers from the eyelids.Repeat 3 times.Improves the circulation of intraocular fluid.
Hydromassage
Rinse your eyes twice a day, morning and night.In the morning - first you can feel the hot water (without burning yourself!) and then the cold.Before going to bed, do everything in the reverse order: rinse with cold, then hot water.
Drawing a picture
First aid for the eyes is to close them for a few minutes and imagine something pleasant.And if you rub your palms and cover your eyes with a warm palm, crossing your fingers in the middle of the forehead, the effect will be more noticeable.
"We shoot with our eyes" (as in the picture)
- We look up and down with maximum amplitude.
- Draw a circle clockwise and back.
- We draw diagonals with our eyes.
- We draw a square with our eyes.
- The gaze follows an arc - convex and concave.
- We look around the diamond.
- We draw bows with our eyes.
- Let's draw the letter S - first in a horizontal position, then in a vertical position.
- We draw vertical arcs with our eyes, first clockwise and then counterclockwise.
- We move our gaze from one corner to the other along the diagonals of the square.
- We bring the pupils to the bridge of the nose with all our strength, bringing the finger closer to the nose.
- We often blink our eyelids, like a butterfly flapping its wings.
When working on a computer, you should remember the following:
- after each exercise, sit for a minute with closed eyes;
- During work on the computer, eye exercises are performed twice a day at the same time;
- watch the movements - the amplitude should be maximum;
- If you work continuously at the computer, take a short one-minute break every 40 minutes, but at least every hour.
