Poor eyesight is a problem that many people have to deal with. For some the problem is focusing on objects close to their face, for others it is trying to make out objects that are far away. Wearing glasses or contacts usually helps, but is there a way to repair your vision? Definitely! Here’s how:

1. Resting your Eyes

Make sure to give your eyes a break several times a day.This can mean anything from closing your eyes for a few minutes to going into a room with low lighting. If you spend most of your day looking at a computer screen adjust the brightness so it does not strain your eyes

2. Taking Your Glasses Off
If you are prescribed to wear glasses try spending some time everyday not wearing them. Although there is limited information on the long-term effects of wearing glasses, according to a study conducted by the Ghana Medical Journal, 64% of Nigerian undergraduate students believe that glasses are harmful to your eyes. According to a study conducted in Brazil, even medical staff believe that glasses can cause damage to your vision

3. Eye Massage
Give your eyes a massage several times a day by gently applying pressure and rubbing the areas around your eye socket. Other methods include using your index finger and thumb to gently press on the area right above the inner corner of your eyes. Massaging your temples and the area on the back of your skull directly behind your eye sockets also helps increase circulation in the eye area.
