Nowadays, many people spend most of their working time in front of the computer.This requires maximum eye strain, causing us to experience discomfort, dryness and fatigue.These seemingly minor symptoms are the first signs of vision deterioration.
Even if a person has 100% vision, they still need adequate rest for their eyes.Special eye exercises will help with this.
“The eyes work thanks to muscles, and it is necessary to train them,” says the ophthalmologist."It is best to do eye movements in the morning or in the evening, before going to bed. Repeat each exercise 5 to 30 times, start small, gradually increase the load. The movements are smooth, without jerks, it is useful to blink between exercises. And do not forget to remove your glasses or contact lenses."
7 best exercises to maintain, restore and improve vision:
