Any person who notices a decrease in vision falls into a slight panic. Due to this situation, a number of new problems are growing: what glasses to buy, if they will spoil the image, how to get used to wearing them, if new eye diseases will begin to develop. Of course, an ophthalmologist will help answer most of these questions. He will write you a prescription for glasses and give you a complete list of the drugs you need to buy at the pharmacy. But in fact, each person can independently restore vision without using expensive drugs and complex procedures, of course, if the disease does not begin, but only begins to appear. You just have to try it, and the result will definitely be positive!
All eye diseases can be divided into two stages: the usual gradual deterioration of vision (initial stage) and complex diseases, which include cataract, glaucoma, dacryocystitis, hemophthalmia, astigmatism, etc. An ophthalmologist will help to exclude the occurrence of dangerous diseases; without his consultation, you should not undertake any independent treatment. In addition, with complex diseases, self-medication can be not only ineffective, but also dangerous. We strongly advise you to see your doctor before using traditional medicine, so as not to make the situation worse.
Why does the vision deteriorate?
To achieve a quick result from the use of traditional medicine recipes, you need to know what factors affect vision impairment. If you have this information, you can eliminate or weaken this disease more effectively.
- Continuous focus on nearby objects. Reading books, watching TV, working for a long time at the computer does not strain the muscles. As a result, the tone of the eye muscles deteriorates and vision begins to decline gradually.
- Natural aging of the retina. Unfortunately, over time, the retina of the eye loses its properties and vision begins to deteriorate. If you want to delay this process, eat more vegetables and fruits, which contain a large amount of vitamins.
- Bright or insufficient lighting causes the eyes to be in constant tension.
- Reading in transport. It greatly affects the normal functioning of the eyes. The vibration that appears during the trip negatively affects concentration. We strongly recommend that you stop reading books and newspapers on the subway, bus or train.
Recipes of traditional medicine to improve vision
Folk remedies have been used long before the advent of medicine itself, so their use will definitely bring you a positive result.

Diet to restore sight
One of the important points of self-improvement tools is diet. There are no strict restrictions here. Extremely healthy food is the main priority. In order for the body to fight the decrease in vision itself, it is necessary to provide it with all the substances that are necessary for the normal functioning of the eyes.
The main composition of products that should be consumed by those who wish to restore vision (it is very effective to follow such a diet during treatment with pharmaceutical preparations prescribed by a doctor):
- Carrots, broccoli, sea fish, all vegetables and fruits.
- Try not to eat a lot of salty, smoked and spicy, fatty foods.
At first glance, there is nothing difficult about following this diet. You just need to make a little effort and be more responsible for your health.
Gymnastics for the eyes
A special place among the many tools of traditional medicine is occupied by ordinary gymnastics for the eyes. If infusions and decoctions must be prepared in advance, kept at a certain temperature, then the exercises can be done anywhere and at any time. Whether you're on the bus or taking a break, take 10 minutes for your health. After a few sessions of this therapy, you will definitely feel an improvement. Most importantly, be sure to remove your glasses or contact lenses - therapeutic exercises should take place in a natural environment for the eyes.
It is noted that the eyes work well due to the normal work of the visual muscles. To keep them in constant tone, you should perform the following exercises:
- Flash.Without straining your eyes, ignore easily and quickly. This has a positive effect on blood circulation.
- Far near.The following exercise is based on different focus of the gaze. Imagine there is a dot on the window. Move your gaze from it to the view outside the window. Then look at the window again. Do this several times.
- Open top.Close your eyes tightly for 6-7 seconds. and then open wide. Do this at least 10 times. Stimulates blood circulation, strengthens eye muscles.
- Pressure in the eyelid.With three fingers of both hands, press the upper eyelids of the eyes. Without exerting too much force, hold for 2-3 seconds and release your fingers. This massage is very useful for the circulation of intraocular fluid.
- Cold and hot shower- Do it every morning. Make it a habit to take a contrast shower for your eyes every day. Start with hot water that is not too scalding. Wash your face, paying special attention to your eyes. Then repeat the same with cold water. It is recommended to finish the water procedures with cold water.
- Imagine something beautiful.An emergency remedy for returning the eyes to working capacity is to close your eyes and imagine something pleasant. The eyes relax from this and gradually return to normal.
- Draw Pictures.Come up with an image yourself and contour it around the edges, without focusing on real objects. Draw virtual lines up, down, sideways, make circular movements.
In fact, regular eye exercises are much more effective than it might seem at first glance. Remember to do all the exercises every day.
If your eyes are tired from long-term work at the computer, you can successfully apply them even by downloading them during a hard day's work.
In conclusion, I would like to note that following the simplest rules will help you not to worry about vision impairment until old age. You need to spend less time on the computer (or take regular breaks), eat more natural products, lead a healthy lifestyle, give up bad habits, work, read or write only withsuitable lighting.
