Nowadays, many people spend most of their time working at computers.This requires maximum eye strain, causing us to feel uncomfortable, dry, and tired.These seemingly minor symptoms are the first signs of vision impairment.
Even if a person has 100% vision, the eyes still need proper rest.Special eye exercises will help with this.
“The eyes work thanks to muscles and muscles need to be exercised,” said the ophthalmologist."It is better to perform eye movements in the morning or evening, before going to bed. Repeat each exercise 5-30 times, starting small, gradually increasing the load. Movements are smooth, without jerks, blinking should be done between exercises. And do not forget to remove glasses or contact lenses."
7 best exercises to maintain, restore and improve vision:
Curtain
Blink quickly and easily in 2 minutes.Helps improve blood circulation.
Look out the window
We made a dot from flexible plastic and sculpted it on glass.We choose a distant object outside the window, look into space for a few seconds, then turn our gaze to that point.After this, 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.Strengthens eyelid muscles, improves blood circulation and helps relax eye muscles.
Massage
Use three fingers of each hand to gently press on the upper eyelid;After 1-2 seconds, remove your fingers from your eyelids.Repeat 3 times.Improves the circulation of intraocular fluid.
Hydromassage
Twice a day, morning and evening, wash your eyes.In the morning - first you can feel the hot water (no burns!), then the cold.Before going to bed, do everything in reverse order: rinse with cold water, then hot water.
Draw a picture
First aid for the eyes is to close your eyes for a few minutes and imagine something pleasant.And if you rub your palms and cover your eyes with a warm palm, intertwining your fingers in the middle of your forehead, the effect will be more pronounced.
“We shoot with our eyes” (as shown in the illustration)
- We look up and down with maximum amplitude.
- Draw a circle clockwise and vice versa.
- We draw diagonal lines by eye.
- We draw a square by eye.
- The gaze follows an arc - convex and concave.
- We look around the diamond.
- We draw arcs by eye.
- We draw the letter S - first in a horizontal position, then in a vertical position.
- We draw vertical arcs with our eyes, first clockwise, then counterclockwise.
- We move our gaze from corner to corner along the diagonals of the square.
- We use all our strength to bring the pupil to the bridge of the nose and bring our fingers close to the nose.
- We blink frequently, like a butterfly flapping its wings.
When working on the computer, you need to remember the following:
- After each exercise you should close your eyes and sit for one minute;
- Eye exercises when working on the computer are done twice a day at the same time;
- motion tracking - amplitude must be maximum;
- When working continuously in front of the computer, take a one-minute break every 40 minutes or at least every hour.
