Treatment of glaucoma by folk methods, means

Hot foot baths

With increased pressure in the eyes, with the appearance of pain in the eyebrows, temples, eyeballs, hot foot baths are helpful. This measure actually helps to distract the pressure and fluid pressure down to the legs, which has a positive effect on the person's well-being and the decrease in intraocular pressure.

Medical leeches

They put on the area of ​​the temple medical leeches (3-5 pieces) on the side of the diseased eye.

Leeches put so: the skin of the temple should be washed with warm boiled water. To process alcohol it is impossible. Then wipe with a not very sweet solution of sugar syrup (or 40% glucose solution).

Medical leeches (they are sold in pharmacies) are placed in a glass in the amount of 3-5 pieces and tilt the glass over the place where they should stick (temporal region or behind the ear) on the side of the diseased eye.

Then wait, when leeches will suck and begin to increase in size due to sucked off blood. The glass must be removed. Having sucked up, having increased in size several times, the leech itself falls off the skin, and the wound continues to bleed. If the last leech lingers on the skin, and the procedure must be stopped, then such a leech should be sprinkled with salt a little - and it falls off itself.

Tear off leeches should not be. Then apply a pressing cotton-gauze dressing. Leeches should be lightly sprinkled with salt, they will bleed, then they can be placed again in clean water (not chlorinated, settling) and applied the next time.

Treatment with leeches is an ancient folk remedy for glaucoma that has survived to this day.

Exercises for the eyes

The ability of the eye to see equally well what is near and far away is called accommodation. This is a special mechanism to adapt to a good vision at a particular distance. To see an object, you must strain your eyesight (or relax by Bates - approx. aut. site).

We strain or relax the inner eye muscle, which is connected to an elastic organic lens - the lens. The work of this internal muscle flattenes or thickens the lens, thereby it refracts the rays of light entering the eye more or less.

In addition, there are external eye muscles turning the eyeball to the right, left, up, down, and the eyelid muscles that open and close the eyes.

At home, you can recommend such a scheme of classes: walking, hand movement and breathing exercises, exercises for the shoulder girdle, for the muscles of the trunk, legs, self-massage of the neck and eyes.

Eye Exercises. To train the external muscles of the eye should be in a sitting position with a motionless head slowly translate the view from floor to ceiling and back, then from right to left and back. Repeat 10-12 times; do circular motions with your eyes in one direction, then in the other direction - repeat 4-6 times, often blink for 20 seconds.

Repeated blinking eyes for 3-5 seconds, as well as massaging the eyelids, rapid blinking improve blood circulation, light pressure on the upper eyelids of both eyes for 1-2 seconds improve the circulation of intraocular fluid, which is especially important for the prevention of glaucoma.

Good luck, good luck and health to you! Do not Mess with Glaucoma!
