Want to discover how to improve your eyesight naturally? Long
before the days of fancy machines, trendy glasses and color contact
lenses, cultures worldwide were limited to what they could do to not
only diagnose but treat vision problems. With modern medicine stepping
in, most will not think twice before slapping on a new set of glasses or
poking around with contact lenses. If we are suppose to believe what we
are being sold, expensive corrective lenses must be our only option
right? Wrong.Glasses And Contact Lenses Do Not Fix The Problems With Your Eyesight
The
problem with corrective lenses is they do nothing to fix the problem
with your eyes. If you are like most, you probably suffer from being
near sighted or far sighted, two of most common vision problems.
Throwing on a set of glasses or contacts simply masks the symptoms, a
patch up if you will. The longer you wear glasses the stronger your
prescription will be overtime. The reason? Our eyes are unable to
correct themselves, they simply get lazier with the use of prescription
lenses.
Luckily if you are desperately wanting to throw away your
glasses and contact lenses you can make it a reality. You can improve
your eyesight naturally without surrendering to expensive and risky eye
surgery!
How Do You Improve Your Eyesight Naturally? My Optometrist Wouldn't Lie To Me. Would They?
The
unfortunate thing about the health industry these days is that more
emphasis is placed on profits and "patching up" symptoms as there is no
money in the cures. Believe it or not, with billions of dollars on the
line there is no doubt that improving your vision naturally is something
that is quickly scoffed at and rarely discussed. Your Optometrist makes
a very healthy income selling you on the latest and greatest frames and
contact lenses year after year. They would rather you never improve
your eyesight naturally!
Exercise to Correct And Restore Vision
1. Palming
Palming
is a fantastic relaxation technique but its effect on helping you relax
your eye muscles and take away other health problems such as head
aches, eye strain and migraines should not be underestimated. With
Palming you simply warm up your hands by rubbing them together and cover
your eyes for a few minutes everyday. This exercise will help your eyes
relax and give them much needed rest, especially after prolonged
periods in front of the computer or television.
2. Focusing On Things In The Distance
Our
eyes are not made to be fixated and focused on the same thing for
extended periods of time. Naturally they are meant to zip around taking
in our surrounding and not fixed on things like reading a book or a
computer screen. Take a breaks every 45-60 minutes and begin to try and
focus on things in the distance. Don't squint or strain simply look at
things, overtime your eyes will be forced to become stronger trying to
readjust to images outside your current vision levels.
3. Physical Exercise
Very
important factor. The fitter we are the more our body will love us for
it, this is not different for the health of our eyes. Being fit and
healthy helps with many vision problems, this includes having a balanced
diets full of vitamins and minerals. Don't underestimate the effect
this has on the health of your eyes.
Going Against The Status Quo - Changing Lives Forever
People
world wide are discovering naturally ways to improve their vision and
throwing away their glasses forever. It might sound far fetched and
unbelievable but it's true.
If you consider your eyes are muscles
like any muscle in your body you would realize that not only can they
strengthen and improve overtime but can correct themselves. When you
provide them with the correct exercises to rebuild your vision, your
eyes begin to recover and your vision will improve in time. You can
improve your eyesight naturally to 20/20 vision!
This we first
demonstrated in 1880 by Dr William H. Bates. Dr Bates treated thousands
of people with eye relaxation and exercise techniques. He found that no
matter the age of the patient, almost all the common vision problems
could be corrected naturally with exercise, permanently. His research
upset his peers. Dr Bates research has been followed and perfected for
over 100 years with many specialists around the world advocating his
natural techniques. The Bates Method as it's commonly called is also
used in class rooms around the world to help prevent and correct vision
problems amongst children.

A Black Spot in Vision - What You Should Know
12:50:00 PM
What are these black spots in my vision?
Black spots in the vision and line of sight are pretty common and whilst it isn't something that you should worry about, it is certainly worth taking the time to understand what is happening and why you are experiencing the symptom.
The black spots are actually more commonly referred to as floaters and have the tendency to float around in and out of the field of vision. Sufferers can get this in one eye or both and it is especially noticeable in areas of bright sunshine or lightly colored frames. The shape and shade of the so-called floaters are subjective - they have been described as fine lines, ovals of varying sizes and even spiders. They are indeed believed to be dead cells (including red and white blood cells) and fine aggregates (lumps) of vitreous protein that are opaque enough to throw a shadow on the retina.
Behavior and What they look like
Floaters can be particularly annoying especially those that occur frequently, easily noticeable and in the line of sight. In most instances, despite being an annoyance, they are usually innocuous however you should pay particular attention to floaters that appear very abruptly and are very noticeable as these may be signs of some kind of hemorrhage into the vitreous body and retinal break. If this occurs then you should definitely book an appointment with your local GP and it's likely that you'll be referred straight to an eye specialist.
How to remove these floaters
There is a surgical procedure that is designed to remove the debris from the vitreous body in your eye - it's called a "vitrectomy". This is a fairly invasive surgery, often expensive and requires significant recovery time. It's only really an option of the floaters are considered as a real annoyance or at the point of becoming a disability.
Natural remedies involve the supplementation of Lutein (a green pigment found in leafy green vegetables such as kale, collard greens and spinach) and Taurine which helps to regenerate tissues in the retina. The recommended doses are 6 mg and 180 mg respectively. Alternative ophthalmologists also recommend antioxidants - whilst there is firm evidence that antioxidants such as vitamin C, E, selenium and zinc can help stop the formation of free radicals (which can cause oxidative damage - kind of like internal rusting) there is no direct evidence linking antioxidants to the removal of "floaters" from the vision.
Finally, eye exercises can help to remove and reduce the severity of black spots. Exercises for relaxation and to strengthen the muscles attached to the lens have been shown to improve overall eyesight performance including floater reduction.
