Can eye exercises improve eyesight? Did anybody ever try, and improve their eyes!


Question:
I was wondering because my 12 year old sister cant see far, and i wanted to know if some eye exercises will improve her vision. Did anybody ever try eye exercising and actually have their eyesight improved?
Answers:
wow sumbody actually asked. yes it does work. after only two months my doctor saw a significant improvement. my eyes go a little worse but he said the results were amazing! since i am still a preteen, most myopic kids my age would have had almost added half of their already existing prescription. but i have a theory of why my eyes did not improve. last year, i was check with -3.15 . however, i was at that stage when i hated wearing glasses because of my ugly look. so i went completely without my glasses for the whole summer. when i was checked in september 05, my doctor had said i had strained my eyes so much. after two months of eye exercises, my myopia had improved from my state of strain in the summer to what i am now even though it is still a little worse than my prescription 2 yrs ago

Other Answers:
At age 16, I was -6.25. A few years later, I went to a different doctor, who thought I could use a weaker strength to force my eyes to exercise. He put me on -5.75. Then a few weeks ago, another doctor did the same. I'm currently at -5.5. So yes, I think it works, but you better have a discussion with the eye doctor first. If it is true for everybody, you guys may have to take it slow, like I did.

I have done eye exercises and benefited. I went to an optometrist's office for several sessions. the exercises eliminated eye strain.

My mom swore that if you rolled your eyes around, than do "figure 8"s. just moving them helps.
BUT I personally tried that for a week, gave up. and got Lasik surgery instead.
Having bad eye sight happens, alot of times its genetic. I personally don't think there's any exercise to stop it, get some glasses or contacts. At some point around age 18-21 her eyes will settle and stop getting worse, than she can get lasik to fix it.

Hi! This method is cheaper than continually changing prescriptions: "Yoga For The Eyes" by Meir Schneider. It's a complete program with a 62 page study guide and eye exercise chart. Natural vision improvement exercises, 74 minutes,USA,Sounds True, P.O. Box 8010,Boulder, CO, 80306, 800-333-9185. 1999 Meir was born without eyesight (was born blind!)and can see now. This was very popular when it came out. Good luck!

Eye exercises are used for many conditions, but not for improving overall eyesight. Many eye doctors prescribe specific vision therapy to help with eye alignment issues that cause headaches and eyestrain. As far as helping you see more clearly, there is no method that has been scientifically proven to do so. Keep in mind that people's prescriptions change with time (this is completely normal). At certain ages, your vision might get a little worsee and at other ages, it might get a little better. Your sister would benefit the most from glasses or possibly contact lenses.

I think you are talking about bates method.

I am also interested in this, and came across some free exercises at the Wikipedia site. Since there are no costs to these exercises, I think they are worth trying.

They can help your vision to an extent, but there are some cases that can only be helped with glasses. Focus on your finger when your arm is extended, then continue to focus while you bring your finger closer to your face. Once it is as close as your eyes can handle, direct your focus to an object that is far away from you. This will help to strengthen the muscles. No matter what, you should see your optometrist.

For a child, eye exercises can improve some eye conditions like strabismus, (lazy eye) but it can't change astigmatism (uneven surface of cornea). I don't think it could much for myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, or cyclopia.
Eyes usuallly get worse during teenage years. I had very poor vision for most of my life. A brain injury when I was twenty two made it even worse. I had surgery for my strabismus and had lasik a year later. I see perfectly now.

i have a good eg for u
my grand papa
he was once not able to read newspaper not could he see distant objects
he use to wash his eyes with cold water after returing home and he just use to stare sharp stuffs for few minutes now he can see better not perfectly but it had helped him its just 2 months now

talk to an eye doctor
