How can I naturally improve my eyesight?

Question

How can I naturally improve my eyesight?

Answer 1

I believe eating carrots is actually an old wives tale started during one of the wars. One of the sides used it to cover up a new technology(radar I think) which was helping them shoot down more planes. They told everybody that their pilots were eating a lot of carrots to hold on to their technological advantage.

Our eyes do change their shape, they are changing all the time to give us clear vision. When we get blurry vision, this is a sign that we are using our eyes, mind, and body together incorrectly. We tend to learn incorrect vision habits during stressful times.

We can improve our vision by upgrading our vision software or unlearning the incorrect vision habits and reintegrating the correct vision behaviors. Our complicated times have interfered with many people's vision, 60 to 80 percent of Americans have blurry vision.

Drinking plenty of water and minimizing sugar intake is always good.

Reading microprint by dim light and other similar words of caution are also old wives tales. They only harm us if we stare, squint, strain, or do other incorrect vision habits while we do challenging vision activities. Otherwise if we are using our eyes correctly they actually strengthen our visual system.

If you have heard about 'Eye Exercises' (eye pushups), let me save you some time and disappointment. Trying to improve your eyesight with eye exercises or eye pushups is like trying to improve your basketball game by just lifting weights and running. In order to improve your game you have to learn the principles of basketball and practice them as you play. Eye exercises don't work. Most people practice them for twenty minutes and then continue with the incorrect vision habits for the other 23 hours and 40 minutes. Most people get bored and disappointed within a week.

So to improve eyesight look for learning the principles of natural eyesight, and avoid anything that talks about exercising your eyes.

Answer 7

Well there's the usual advice about eating a pound of carrots. But Its usually the changing shape of your eye that causes bad vision rather than poor health of the eye. The best advice I can give is to never read in dim lights and avoid spending hours with your face all up in a computor screen or the TV.
