Vision for man is the main sense organ, since up to 80% of information about the world around us is obtained through visual perception.If a person has problems with hearing, smelling, or even speech, then his life, of course, does not play with all colors, but vision can fill in the missing spaces - for example, sign language for deaf-mutes. However, a decrease in visual acuity or other violations of it immediately affects the quality of life.This is especially true with the invention of computers, mobile phones, tablets, etc.Moreover, computers are often a means of professional activity, and it is impossible to refuse to use them.
Therefore, many are interested in the question of whether it is possible to restore vision or at least improve it, without considering the operational capabilities of ophthalmological clinics.And for this it is necessary first of all to determine the causes that have influenced the decline in vision.
Each child is born with a certain degree of farsightedness and astigmatism.But literally by the first year of life in most children these deviations decrease, and approximately to 3 years come to normal. However, the child's vision control should be carried out as often as possible, in case of deviations from the norm, the correction should begin in a timely manner.
Unfortunately, on this the parents' torments do not end - after all the school is ahead, which means an increased strain on the eyes.And here another tragedy awaits - short-sightedness, which is practically impossible to fix. However, you can slow down the process.
In the adult population, vision problems most often begin in old age or with prolonged work on the computer. There are many medications for preserving eye health, but most often these are means of prevention. But the medicine to restore vision, has not yet been invented.
And, nevertheless, optimists say that this is possible.The remedies listed below are not a panacea and have some kind of scientific foundation.However, not everyone can approach and be effective only with regular and persistent application.
Products for improving vision
Of course, if you tell the doctor that they have restored vision with blueberries, then he will laugh at you in the face.But the dependence of vision on proper nutrition will be confirmed by any ophthalmologist. After all, the eyes, like any tissues of the body, need nutrition, and precisely those substances that are necessary for good functionality of the vascular and nervous system.
For good vision, the following components are required:
Vitamin A- prevents retinal degeneration and improves the quality of visual perception. The daily intake rate is 5 mg. Mostly contained in carrots, sweet peppers, herbs, apricots. For its good assimilation, fats are necessary, so before using pepper or apricot, you should eat a sandwich with butter;
Vitamin C- increases the tone and microcirculation in the eye structures. The daily norm is 70-100 mg. Its high content in dog-rose, Bulgarian pepper, currant, greens, tomatoes. Destroy with prolonged heat treatment, so it is best to eat raw or after a slight thermal impact;
Vitamin E- prevents the appearance of myopia and a decrease in the transparency of the lens. A day should be consumed up to 140 mg. High content in nuts, dried apricots, sea buckthorn, seafood, dog rose, wheat. Destroyed by exposure to high t, light, contact with air, prolonged storage, freezing;
B vitamins- are mandatory for the good work of nerve fibers and the assimilation of other vitamins. The main of this group is vitamin B1. The daily requirement - from, mg in a child before, mg for men. Most is in nuts, seafood, wheat, oatmeal, pork, liver. Destroy with prolonged storage and heat treatment;
Vitamin D- prevents the degeneration of the retina. The daily intake rate is 10-15 μg / day. High content in eggs, sour cream, butter, liver, seafood. Resistant to high t.
In addition to vitamins, very important trace elements:
Potassium- contained in sea kale, prunes, dried apricots, beans and peas, izume and nuts;
Calcium- high content of almonds and pistachios, cottage cheese and cheese, mustard and beans;
Zinc- is a part of liver and pork, peanuts and pine nuts, melted cheese and barley cereal;
Selenium- most of it in the liver, eggs, rice, corn and wheat, nuts, beans and peas.
To normalize the metabolic processes in the eye tissues and provide them with the necessary nutrition, pay special attention to the presence in the diet of orange fruits and herbs, nuts and seafood, some berries and low-fat varieties meat. Dishes should be easy to digest and not subject to prolonged heat treatment.
Also, there are developed vitamin drops for the eyes, which improve metabolic processes in various organ structures. These include Riboflavin - a drug based on natural ingredients.
Folk remedies
In addition to a balanced diet, you can take advice from traditional medicine, which for the most part also consist of either products or herbs. And because of this, they are absolutely harmless, except for a possible allergenic effect.
The effect of such treatment will not come very quickly, but with the regularity and duration of application, it can be quite tangible:
Buy in the pharmacy seaweed "fucus take 3 tbsp. l. and pour in the thermos with boiling water. Infuse the night, then freeze in the form of cubes in special molds. Before going to bed, wipe the area around the eyes with a cube, and do not rinse them when penetrating into the eyes. Course of treatment - 2 weeks;
Make infusion of chamomile: 1 h. l. for 100 ml of boiling water to infuse for 10 minutes. Strain and divide in half. Warm up one half and cool the other. Do alternately compresses in tech. 10 min. The course of treatment - before bedtime every other day, as necessary;
Mix the juice of mint with honey and water in equal parts, then use 2-3 drops in the morning and evening to instill the eyes;
Dry the roots of wheatgrass, chop and pour boiling water (4 tbsp. l. at 5 tbsp. water). To evaporate until the volume decreases by 1/4. Take 1 tbsp. l. 4-5 r. in a day;
Take 100 unripened medium-sized pine cones, 25 g of flowering rue (grass) and cut into 4 parts of lemon, pour, l of water, pour 100 g of sugar and cook on a small fire for hours. Ready to take 1 tbsp. l. three times a day before meals for a month;
In the pit made in the apple put 1 h. l. honey and wait until it dissolves in apple juice. The resulting remedy drips into the eye three times a week at the first sign of cataracts.
Each folk remedy has a special effect and can be both beneficial, so (in some cases) and harmful, since in certain diseases its effect becomes unpredictable. Therefore, in the presence of severe pathologies and a tendency to allergies, consult a doctor.
Exercises
The eyes are surrounded on all sides by the muscles that exercise the motor functions. Even inside the eyes is a ciliary muscle, which helps the lens to change its shape and thereby regulating visual acuity. And although official medicine is skeptical about the methods of training these muscles and their dependence on their state of eye health, these methods are very popular, and therefore, they possess some effectiveness.
According to Bates
The technique of the American scientist is the very first in a number of similar means and was proposed at the beginning of the last century to treat such visual impairments as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism.At the moment Professor Zhdanov actively promotes this technique.
Here are some exercises from the proposed Bates:
Palming. The essence of the exercise is to achieve complete relaxation of the retina and rid the eyes of any impact, even mental. For this, palms slightly rub against each other and cover their eyes, crossing their fingers on the forehead. In this position, you must be 3-5 minutes. Achieving the effect is complete blackness before the eyes;
Memories. It is carried out to enhance the effect in the previous exercise. To relax as much as possible and thereby achieve complete relaxation of the eye muscles, one should imagine some bright pleasant memory: for example, taste, smell or sound. If this works, the psyche will relax as much as possible, and closing your eyes with your hands, you will see a complete blackness;
Training muscles.There are several basic exercises - frequent blinking, screwing up, rotating eyes, viewing objects near and far. The main thing at the same time is to observe the constancy and the certain duration of studies (3-5 min. ) several times a day. Exercises should also last approximately the same time intervals. If you decide to make the classes more lengthy, between the exercises, relax the eyes by viewing special pictures.William Bates Methodology
Based on the feedback, the conclusion is drawn that the technique is quite effective at low degrees of nearsightedness and farsightedness. However, even in other cases, exercises allow achieving complete relaxation of the eye muscles. Contraindication to this technique is the threat of detachment of the retina and postoperative period of 6 months.
According to Norbekov
This technique also attaches special importance to the psychological state.During the exercises it is necessary to maintain a muscular "corset a straight back, straightened shoulders and a smile on your face. This provides a positive emotional mood, which is an important element.
The following exercises are included in the complex:
Alternately look up, down, to the right and to the left. And not just watch, but try to mentally penetrate these directions: through the forehead, throat, right and left ear;
Write out the underlying "eight" or the sign "infinity" with the eyes. In doing so, try to get the drawing of the largest size. Do the exercise in both directions;
Skew eyes on the tip of the nose, then look relaxedly forward and fix the sides sight with side vision;
Bring the index fingers on the tip of the nose and fix the sight, then start to breed them in different directions, trying not to let go of sight;
Perform movement with your eyes, as if viewing each digit on the clock. First clockwise, then against.
Eye movements should be performed with the head and the whole body stationary, while maintaining a positive attitude. The author of the methodology recommends performing the complex in 3 stages:
With open eyes;
With closed eyes;
Mentally.
The main thesis, as in the Bates method, is a positive psycho-emotional state and belief in achieving a result.

conclusions
Although the above methods have no scientific basis, even official medicine can not deny their positive effects on the body as a whole and on the eyes in particular.In any case, training the muscles and saturating the diet with healthy food has not done any harm to anyone.
However, everything should be within reasonable limits, even the use of vitamins.And if you doubt something (in dosage or duration of the course), it is better to consult a specialist.
At the same time, do not forget that prevention is mandatory, both in the treatment of diseases and in their prevention.And it is much easier to observe the hygiene of vision and to eat rationally than after going to an ophthalmologist for glasses or even doing an operation.
