How to Improve Your Eyesight?

I am sure we are seeing six out of ten people wearing glasses in this modern age. Sometimes we think it might be just for a style but the fact is there are lot of eye sight issues we are facing in this generation of video games and visual technologies.

There are so many myths and misconceptions about how to improve our eyesight or prevent eye problems.

Many of the eye sight problems are avoidable if we care for our eyes before we get them, because some vision problems are curable, some can only be treated than cured and other eye conditions are completely untreatable.

Below are some best ways to try to improve our eye sight.

Eat Well to See Well:

We all know the fact that ‘We are what we eat’. All our health issues can be prevented by having a healthy eating habit.

We have been growing up hearing the phrase “Eat carrots to improve eye sight”. I am sure most of our mom’s ran behind us with vegetable plates in our childhood.

This tale about carrots helping us to see in the dark is not completely false. Carrots contain a fair amount of Vitamin A, which can help to treat night blindness. And if you don’t like carrots, you can get almost as much Vitamin A from broccoli leaves, or sweet potatoes. But it’ll only work if you already have a vision problem caused by Vitamin A deficiency; for healthy eyes, extra carrots will make no difference.

Healthy foods for our eyes include green leafy vegetables and fish.  A diet with plenty of these food is can help us preventing vision problems and the age related vision problems as well.

Exercise to Treat Focus Issues:

Eye can improve our eyesight, but only if you suffer from an eye condition like double vision, uncoordinated eye movements, crossed eyes or an inability to cross your eyes, all of which hamper your ability to focus your vision.

Avoid Eye Strain:

Too much strain to your eyes cab lead to problems with eyesight in the short term and in the log term.

No matter what you’re doing, stop every 20 minutes or so to look at something else. If you’ve been doing up-close work, focus on a distant object for half a minute; if you’ve been staring out into the distance, look at something close by. The change in distance helps to prevent straining the muscles that adjust the focus of your eyes.

Another source of eye strain is light itself. Ultraviolet light damages your eyes, so wear UV-protective sunglasses to help prevent deterioration of your vision.

Our eyes evolved to handle light from the sun or a flame, so the electric light from streetlamps, computer screens and LED's may cause more eye strain than natural light. Even that isn’t a sure thing, though; the benefits of electrically-lit experiences can outweigh the downsides.

Play High-Adrenaline Video games:

You might think certain activities, like watching TV or playing video games, are pretty much guaranteed to make your eyesight worse. That’s not necessarily true.

Some video games may help to improve your eyesight.
