"Can eye exercises improve vision?" Most people will have this confusion. While doing eye exercises to improve vision won't miraculously give you perfect vision, they are well worth it to prevent too much stress on your eyes. Eye exercises can help optimize visual skills. After reading the following blog post, I think it will definitely help you.

5 Eye Exercises to Improve Vision

1. Palm

Slowly relax the muscles around the eyes to reduce eye strain. Rub your hands together again to warm them up. Then close your eyes and finally rest the palm of each hand over your cheekbones, covering your eyes. Place your hand over each eye and breathe deeply for five minutes. This will relax the muscles and make your eyes feel refreshed.

2. Blink

The average human blink rate slows when staring at a digital device. Restore the tear film by blinking consciously throughout the day. You can open your eyes for two seconds, then close them, and repeat several times. This consciously tightens the eyelids for additional stimulation of the oil glands.

3. Pencil Pushups

The purpose of these vision-improving exercises is to train the eyes to converge when looking at things close to you. Take a pencil and keep it arm's length away. Focus on the top of the pencil. If you can get the pen to touch your nose and still keep it single, hold this position for two seconds then relax. If you cannot keep the pen single, move it back to arm's length and start again. Repeat this for one minute (or 20 cycles) then relax the eyes by looking in the distance for one minute.

4. Near and far focus

Keep your eye focus system focused and relaxed. Pick a distant object and stare at it for 10-15 seconds. Then select an object that is closer to you and repeat. Do this multiple times a day, especially if you're going to be on the screen for a long time. It is best to invest in blue light glasses to avoid digital eye strain.

5. 20-20-20 practice

Looking at a computer, phone or tablet screen for long periods of time can tire your eyes. The 20-20-20 rule is a strategy widely used to avoid the symptoms of digital eyestrain. The concept is simple: Look at the screen for every 20 minutes, then raise your head and focus on an item about 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds.
