EYE PALMING
Rub your hand to create heat, and place your palms on your eyelids without pressing them. Relax your eyes for twenty seconds to help the eye muscles.
20-20 RULE
Take a 90-second break every 20 minutes by looking at a distant object about 20 feet away, to relieve your eye fatigue caused by gazing at computer screens for long periods.
BLINKING EXERCISE
Keep blinking to wet your eyes and avoid them going dry. It can reduce eye strain caused by extended screen time.
FOCUS SHIFTING
To train eye muscles, shift your gaze from near objects to distant ones or vice versa. To do this, you simply need to look away from something far away and look closely at a closer object.
EYE CIRCLES
Move your eyeballs gently in a circular direction, that is, clockwise and then anticlockwise to improve the circulation of blood into the eyes.
PALMING WITH DEEP BREATHING
Practise palming and deep-breathing exercises. Take a deep breath and hold it for a moment before releasing it slowly with the eyes covered.
CONCLUSION
A healthy diet and practising these exercises can help you improve your eye health. Consult a healthcare professional if you are facing eye-related problems.
