Eye exercises? Help with vision improvement.?!
Question: Eye exercises? Help with vision improvement.?
I want to know about eye exercises. Its not like there's any risk, right?
I admit, I may seem very, very vain, but I value my senses more then most things, vision, hearing and tactile the absolute most. Personally I think everyone should have perfect senses* but that's obviously not the case.
I do NOT want LASIK or any other laser eye surgery. Far to risky.
I don't really care how long the exercises take (though I would like for them to have effects before 6 months).
I would also apreciate knowing HOW they work.
*Blindness is well documented, and so is deafness. Now think of what it would be like if a person could not feel...

No, there is no risk in doing " eye exercises" , but then again , they aren't of any help either.
HOW they work can be explained in two words...they don't.
Most of the " exercises " are just repeating the same movements our eyes are doing all day, everyday anyway. What's an extra 10 minutes of rolling your eyes around going to do. It's all utter nonsense.
Rolling the eyes sideways , then up and down are only moving the external muscles that control eye movement and have nothing to do with how vision works. Those muscles don't need exercise, we are moving our eyes all the time.
Then there are others like focusing on a pencil a few inches away from your nose then bringing it closer then farther out several times...what difference is that to the hundreds of times a day our eye accommodate for near vision every time we look at something less than 20 inches away ? Another 10 minutes of forcing accommodation won't make any difference either.
If exercises actually worked to reverse myopia, there would be new clinics open in every city and town with thousands of people signed up to learn how ,and do it in group sessions....but there aren't any for obvious reasons.
Sooo, you just have to suck it up and get glasses if it gets to that point, like, millions of others have.
