Eye Exercises  »   Exercise 3 : How to stretch your vision

Hey, Vikram.

Thanks for your post & congrats on your decision to improve your eyesight naturally.

What you described is quite correct... it's exactly what I, myself, did at first, from I recall, to restore my own eyesight. I forced my eyesight to see, at first, but then tried a different approach, which turned out to work better for me.

I straightened my back, took some deep breaths, and took 2 minutes to draw a horizontal 8 with my eyes. Did this while fully relaxed and feeling happy and peaceful. I then did the Palming exercise for 5 - 20 minutes (varied, depending on how much free time I had). I then begun doing the gazing thing, in between my work. I found that feeling relaxed and happy (smiling, if possible), back straight, and deep breaths helps to see the objects far away without any effort on one's part. When blinking, I blinked very lightly, only for 3 seconds or less, with gaps in between (just like a butterfly does, when it tries to sit on a flower that is swung by the wind).

Crossing my eyes also helped me to focus.

Another big thing that helped was a face massage. There are points on our face massaging which helps to relax our eye muscles. I was told about them twice when I was younger... once by a very good oculist (ophthalmologist) doctor, and another by an alternative medicine specialist, friend of my mom - also very good, she's doing all big politicians around the world (including our former president, Yeltsin). Unfortunately I never took notice of them, until recently. These points are no secret though, so search for face massage, and you'll likely find them. They are located around our eyes, and near our nostrils. Press firmly, but not too hard. Also remember that massages are done at your heart's pace.

So, that's what I did. I think that if you understand how it all works and why our eyesight improves, you'll then begin to develop something that'll suite yourself. Practice it, and then let us know how it goes.

Someone had just shared this website with me, the information about eyesight on which, I think, is awesome.

Hi, Waltz, your questions is irrelevant to exercise 3... :o)

I'll happily answer it though.

From my experience I found that when you go to asleep with tired eyes, you'll wake up with tired eyes. My sources tell me that we need to relax our eyes, before going to sleep. They're saying that going to sleep doesn't automatically guarantee relaxation for our eyes, i.e. that if eye muscles are tense when we go to bed, they'll likely stay tense throughout all night. To relax them, I did Palming, and did swings from left to right. I'm sure that I had mentioned this one somehwere... But if not, it goes like this: You stand up, feet at shoulder width, hands just hanging naturally, and you start swinging your body from side to side, including hands, but not feet. Relax your eye muscles as much as you can, looking straight, and try not to focus your vision on anything while moving. You can focus when you reach max left, or max right, but not in between. Another exercise is to use a candle (lighter, match, or any other source of fire), turn the lights off, making the room dark, and start turning your head from side to side, while looking straight. Then you can do Palming. I still try doing these ones, in fact, since it doesn't take long, and helps to keep my eyesight strong.

Sorry for posting it under exercise 3 ;0
thanks for answering though.I think i'll stop being lazy and practice those exercises more diligently. ;)

Can you tell me the blinking pattern for the third exercise?
When I try to stretch my vision on a distant object, i find it uncomfortable sometimes and need to blink more often than usual..

So how must one blink while stretching our vision?

Should it be a rapid 2-3 blinks in 2-3 seconds or a slow blink (closing your eye for almost half a second)...

Sorry, i did'nt get your butterfly analogy :(
