Freedom from Glasses

March 28th, 2009

I enjoy the freedom I have now.  I enjoy being able to pick up a newspaper and just begin reading it with my morning coffee—not needing to fumble and hunt for my glasses.  I enjoy going out to restaurants with loved ones and friends and really connect with them without peering behind my glasses.  I love having the freedom to do many things—sports, and others, without having the hindrance of glasses or contact lenses to worry about.  I enjoy my life!

People that have never experienced being with prescription glasses each day to function may not appreciate this as much as those that have, but having good vision health is very important.  I consider myself lucky because my eyesight and vision condition has not been too bad when the doctor discovered that I needed glasses, and it had not worsened by the time I realized that I wanted to take things into my own hands and find ways and means to be free of my glasses—if not for good, at least for most times of the day and for most of my daily activities.

I came across natural vision improvement resources on the internet and I my interest was instantly sparked.  I was so tired of feeling helpless and without control over the way my eyes had gone bad.  I really wanted to be in control—to, at least try, do something about my vision!

I noticed improvements in my vision not long after I had started the exercises and begun changing my habits to better help my eyesight.  I am so happy now that I have the freedom that I do.

I guess the best message I can say about this experience is this—people can really make a difference in their vision health if they take the time to.  The benefits of great vision are endless and all there is to do is make the conscious choice to do something about it.

2 Simple Habits for Vision Improvement

March 24th, 2009

It takes a conscious effort to make a difference in the state and health of one’s vision.  Too many times, people neglect to see the importance of taking care of one’s eyes and one’s vision; and this leads to a myriad of manifested problems.  It takes a few changes in how each person goes about every day life to assure a positive impact to vision improvement and in the maintenance of good vision health.

Vision improvement and good eye health begins with understanding the importance of the parts of the eyes and their function to vision.  Making the lifestyle changes necessary may only become temporary if there is no true understanding of the ‘why’s’ of what must be done.  Seeing the importance and the effect each lifestyle change will have to vision improvement and health will significantly increase the likelihood of making them good habits instead of conscious actions.

First and foremost, people should focus on the simplest action the human body does involuntarily to help the eyes:  blinking.  Blinking functions as a means to lubricate and cleanse the outermost layer of the eyes.  It prevents bacteria and other foreign particles that may cause infections or eye conditions, from sticking to the outermost layer of the eyes.  It has been observed that during activities like watching TV, using the computer or reading, the rate of blinking slows.  This lessens the lubrication of the eyes and lessens the opportunities for the eyes to be cleansed.  Furthermore, drying out of the outermost layer of the eyes is not good for vision health.  Being conscious, then, about blinking at a normal rate during the mentioned activities will benefit the eyes a lot in the long run.

Another habit that can provide vision improvement is to remember to focus and refocus.  Instead of staring and focusing for long periods at a time on something like the screen of the computer, the TV or a book, move your attention to other things in the distance and in other areas every so often.  Staring a maintaining focus in one point or area has been found to be more stressful and straining to the eyes than when they are constantly changing focus.  Giving the eyes opportunities for movement are opportunities to lessen the strain on the muscles of the eyes.

These are two simple habits that can provide a wealth of difference to vision improvement and maintenance.  Acquiring them and making them habits done regularly really helps.

Good Habits for your Eyes

March 21st, 2009

There are a few simple things that you can do to make sure that you are caring for your eyes well amidst a busy day in front of the computer.  They are so simple and easy to do it is almost funny why not many people do them on a regular basis!

One of the most important things to be aware of as you try to naturally improve your vision is that the little things count.  Even an action as simple as blinking at the proper rate means a lot to vision health since blinking allows the eyes to get cleansed and re-lubricated.  Also, the few moments of rest and relaxation away form staring into a monitor or screen or paper work does wonders to the health of the eyes.

So, here are a few things that you should try to train yourself to be good habits for the eyes:

  1. Blink –make sure your eyes are properly lubricated by blinking.  Blinking also helps the eyes cleanse themselves from the dirt and the grime that may attach to the lenses of the eyes.
  2. Focus and re-focus – eyes actually get more strained when there is no movement and change in focus too much.  Learn to change the focus of your eyes a few moments every half hour or so.  Look out or at something far off in the distance.  Look at something close-by.  Just let your eyes move!
  3. Shut up—closing your eyes and resting them for a few moments every few hours will help your eyes and vision health.  You may also cover your eyes with the palms of your hand to rest them and soothe them.
  4. Massage – try to find the time to massage your eyes and the muscles around your eyes at least once a day.

The suggestions here are quite simple and easy to do but they do have a big impact on vision health especially if they are done everyday.  So take the time to focus on your vision.  It does not take long but the benefits are great!

Good Vision - Eye Sight

March 13th, 2009

One of the worst things that a person can do to his eyes is to expose them to prolonged computer or television use.  Without knowing it, the eyes endure so much stress and strain because of the lack of lubrication, eye strain, and stress.

Keeping glued to the ‘Tube’ or working too long in front of the computer is harmful to our eyesight because of the lack of lubrication the eyes get during these actions.  People that are focused on the screen of either the television or the monitor tend to blink less than normal.  This lessens the amount of lubrication to the eyes and makes the eyes break down faster.  Blinking provides not only lubrication, but also is a means for the body to clean the eyes’ surface.  This is very important when it comes to naturally improving vision so it is strongly recommended that these activities be lessened.

Watching television and using the computer also adds strain to the muscles and other parts of the eyes.  These actions keep the eyes at a steady point so the muscles of the eyes are forced to keep their position for prolonged periods of time.  Shifting gazes and regular movement of the eyes are important to keeping vision at tiptop shape.  The bright lights and the strong rays that are emitted from the screens of both the television and the computer monitor also stress the eyes since they have to focus and adjust to the harsh and bright lights.

Natural vision improvement is really quite easy.  All there is to do is make sure that people take into consideration the stresses on the eyes and the effects of their daily habits and lifestyles have on vision.  Bing conscious about wanting to improve their vision is pretty much the very first step to natural vision improvement.

Lessen television viewing and computer use for the sake of your eyes.  If these activities are necessary, then try to take short breaks in between periods of doing these activities.  These little breaks will do wonders for the health and well-being of your vision.

Vision Improvement Breathing

January 25th, 2009

Imagine this—you have been in a very high stress career and have been tending to work, family, home and a million other things for the longest time and finally you get the chance to go to the most relaxing, rejuvenating place you dream of (a beach, mountainside, or lake).  What is the very first thing you will do when you get there and see the wondrous sites?  Chances are, your answer would be the same as, or very similar to everyone else’s—TAKE A DEEP BREATH!

Breathing is something that we rarely put any thought on.  It is so natural that we never really seem to realize its importance to our general health and vision.

Do you ever notice that you tend to hold your breath when you are having difficulty focusing on an object or difficulty reading something?  When were babies, we knew the proper way to breathe and did so naturally.  We benefitted from that.  As we grow up though, many of us forget to do so or learn bad habits in breathing due to high stress situations and other factors.  This reality of not breathing well and not breathing properly negatively affects health and increases the chance of vision problems as we age.

Re-learning the proper breathing techniques is important to vision improvement and health.    Breathing properly promotes good oxygen flow throughout the body and in turn allows the eyes to function optimally!

It is a little known fact that breathing properly is one of the key treatments to natural vision improvement.  Learning some breathing techniques and doing breathing exercises a few minutes each day will provide so much good to your overall health and your vision.

We may not be able to go to our dream vacation spot everyday, but use your imagination…take a few moments to close your eyes, picture your dream place…and more importantly—TAKE A DEEP BREATH!
