- Meds that affect vision--practically everything but nothing we use. However, pupil dilation meds affect your eyes badly.
- Vitamins--High dosages of A create pressure on eyes
- Issues with eyeglasses pg 54-59
- Explanation of lasik and eye surgeries: 59-64
- Bates method of natural eyesight correction 65-
- Based on eye relaxation techniques--pg 70 review of this
- Central fixation: on one word with all else going blurry, then on one letter...move down the line to other letters and spaces
- Shifting: while blinking a lot shift eyes rapidly between close and far objects
- Sunning: close eyes and point toward sun, then shift away and open eyes for several seconds; helps deal with light sensitivity.
- Relaxation: close eye until total blackness, no gray or yellow
- Other: breathing in slow deep breaths--eyes closed, sit on floor, breath in through nose slowly and out through mouth pushing on lungs to get air out. Rest and repeat for 3 min. Open eyes slowly and let them adjust but don't focus on any one thing.
- Pray and ask for vision. Be positive (not into self help statements)
- Palming: in an area where you can have dim light that can be increased gradually, cover eyes gently with hands while resting elbows on table. Pray and let yourself relax...for 20-30 seconds, open eyes slowly for 5 seconds and gradually brighten lights. Do this at least once a day or when your eyes are strained.
- Figure 8's: lie down with knees bent. Focus about 15 feet in front of you and let eyes draw 8's one way, then another. Focus on relaxing jaw. Blink often and breathe slowly.
- Scanning: practice letting eyes roam the room without fixing on any one thing...sit/stand/lie. Train a new habit and make it permanent to scan and not fix eyes on any one thing.
- Blinking: practice blinking every 4 seconds for 2-3 minutes...every hour. Check and have someone count when you aren't paying attention. The goal is 10-15x per minute. If not, continue working till your retrain the habit.
- DON't blink more than once every three seconds or it's detrimental.
- Figure 8--infinity symbol on wall 10 feet away. (or imagine). Trace it slowly, not speeding up in the middle for one minute at a time reversing the way you go for a total of 6 min.
- Switching focus: have an object (or finger) at arms length and one 10-20 feet away. Breath slowly and fully and focus on one object for 5 seconds and transfer to the other for 5 seconds. Do this for 3 minutes several times a day.
- Tracing: choose a 3 d object (stool) and trace it continually, not jerking eyes. Can transfer to several different objects. Blink often, breathe.
- Peripheral vision: sit 5 feet from a blank wall, up straight. Breath and slowly let your eyes (without body/head movement) look over your left shoulder. Hold for 10 sec (build by 5 sec later). Then close eyes and return them to the center slowly. Repeat on other side. 3 x for each side 2-3 x daily.
- Vertical vision: same as above using your upper lip and eyebrows as anchors.
- Tracking: hold both hands out in front of you with index fingers up. Move right finger halfway to you, then move it to the side slowly while focusing on it (can see the other finger) and hold 5 sec, then bring it back and repeat with left hand...do 3-5 reps on each side 2 x day.
- Soaking: lie down and place a cloths as warm as you want folded across your eyes. Gently press it so it contacts your whole eyelid. Wait 2-3 min and remove, slowly open eyes. Repeat with cool cloth.--good after straining exercises along w/ palming or at end of day.
- Quick focus breaks: use often with better blinking: when straining, focus on another object a distance away for 5-10 seconds...not light sources.
- Eye massage: DON'T RUB EYES THAT ARE STRAINED. Sit 5-10 feet away from blank wall, dim light. Tilt head back 45 degrees and close eyes. Using index and middle finger of each hand, not pressing down, move in a circular motion not dragging but putting fingers in place for 2-3 seconds and moving around for 2-3 min. Open eyes slowly
- Distinguishing at a distance: two objects --one big, onesmall and infront--at end of long hall, same/similar color and eye level. Walk down hall until you can distinguish between the two objects and trace the smaller one/in front for 30 seconds. Look away, step back and repeat until you can't make out smaller object. Mark beginning and ending marks on the floor. See if you can step back further each time you do it.
