EYE EXERCISES to improve your eyesight (is this legit?) | Optometrist Explains

Eye exercises to improve your eyesight | Optometrist Explains
are there any natural ways of healing eyesight? how can I do exercises to stop my eyes getting worse?
These are some of the most common questions I get asked while practicing.
Just like how doing exercises will probably not make you any taller, eye exercises have a very specific role which is to restore the eyes to "normal" acuity

[@MonkeyPunchZPoker]

I had better vision at 40 then 20. The job I had at 19 or 20 required use to go from one old school computer monitor to two while we migrated systems, and that totally wrecked my previous excellent vision. It was around 30 I pointed to a sign on a desk when telling someone how great my eyesight use to be saying "I used to be able to read that", then noticed I could. Maybe my eyes would just gradually healed after getting away from what wrecked them, like over years, but it does feel like eye exercises helped. The one I did most was to focus on my finger about 6 inches from my nose then on a far away object. Doing this definitely helped with eye strain, and I have to think it helped with eyesight too.

Well, now I better understand why the eye dr had me doing horrible eye exercises when I was young. They use to trigger migraines when I was a kid though.

[@firesidemike3846]

[@DoubsGaming]

The area I was most curious about which I don't feel was covered was more of the speed at which your eyes can do things. Or the ability to track objects smoothly. For example I play a lot of FPS's and have to have fast reaction times and tracking things flying everywhere whether it's players, nades or flashes. Are there any training exercises that help with these? Some of these might also have to do with neuro pathways and the brain rather than just the eyes probably but I figure it's still worth asking.

[@chocotriscuit4917]

whatever eye training you could do is probably just reducing eye strain like OP mentioned, or would require muscle memory, similar to his basketball analogy. you would probably get much better results by finding your bad habits and ergonomics problems, than you would with eye exercise. Struth Gaming has good tips about aiming, i noticed my aim get a decent bit better after following some of his habits and ergonomics tips (though it's possible that MOST of the improvement i saw would happen without his help, but definitely not all of it)

[@someguy5909]

I recently got glasses for my near sightedness about a year ago, I realized it was proably from too much screen time, apparently focusing on things up close for too long will change the eye shape and give you this condition. But apparently no medical websitees or anything theorize the opposite: that looking at things far away without your glasses will change your eye shape back. So now apparently because I chose to use screens too much for a year or two i get to suffer with glasses for the rest of my life and apparently im at a higher risk of going blind when im old. Why is life so cruel? My only hope is every once and a while i heat a story where someones vision miraculously returns to them after avoiding screens for a prolonged amount of time why hasnt any medical jouranl or anythin looked into this? if screens can make you nearsighted by changing your eye shape i see no logical reason looking at far away things wouldnt do the exact opposite. But thats life right? its always 10x easier to suffer than to win.

My son fixed his eyes from +9 to 20/20 using Meir Schneider guidelines

[@awesomebearaudiobooks]

Well, to answer your question, most of the research is done by the specialists who sit in front of the screen all day in small cabinets. And so do people that usually have problems with near-sightedness. The problem is, to test your theory, the researchers would need to find people with short-sightedness who would be ready to drastically change their lifestyle, going from sitting in front of the screen all the day to staring at objects a huge distance a way, and a lot of them won't be able to do that because they would lose their jobs and/or get worse at studying. Also, I've heard that the problem isn't that focusing on things up close will change the eye shape, but that the eye gets more rigid with age, so it gets harder for the muscles to change to the shape. Also, some people actually get far-sightedness even whine staring at books and screens all day, a condition in which they can see the objects far away well enough, but can't read a book because the text is too blurry for them. For example, I got near sightedness after sitting in front of the screen all day for a few years. On the other hand, my mom, who is a university professor and has a similar lifestyle to me, actually got far-sightedness. Also, the problem is, I actually tried looking at the objects far away. When I was 16, I could clearly see the blackboard from the last deck, but when I turned 24 and joined an MBA program after a few years of studying for my Bachelor's from home front of my PC, and I noticed that I can barely see the text on the blackboard even from the first deck. I tried sitting further back, but the only thing it caused is constant squinting and headaches, with no big visual improvement. Although, to be frank, the lighting in the university was quite shitty, so maybe a better lighting would've helped concentrate easier and to not over strain the eye muscles.

@AntoniotheOptometrist - I recently found your channel and find it informative and well put together. I really like when you show how X condition looks like to patients; there's a lot of putting oneself in the patients' shoes in those videos, which is great. And, that kind of first person presentation makes the concepts easier to understand. Thank you for the effort that you clearly put into doing that. While I generally agree with most of what you presented in this video, I think that you overlooked something: voluntary accommodation. Yes, it's rare. And, yes, exercise of the ciliary muscle does make a huge difference, especially as we grow older. That's not a question; I am sharing my own experience. Generalizing all patients' situation is a prevailing (and increasing) mindset that is hurtful to many patients; it results in doctors not listening, which manifests as a lack of empathy and compassion. Not every patient can be made to fit into one tidy, catch-all norm. It's important to always keep an open mind. 🙏

That's interesting, as when I was 8-10 yo, I was doing gymnastics for eyes (like cover them with palms for a few seconds, look up, down, sides, look at the dot on the window-look at the horizon, etc), and my vision would improve! from 70% to even 120% on one eye and 60% to 90% on the other. Of course, my vision was crisper only while I was doing those exercises, as soon as I would stop, it would slowly go back to old numbers. Indeed, I don't understand how could it work, and if there is no evidence, especially! Is that because I was a kid? 🤔

[@kristianl7117]

Probably is yes, but also your brain becomes used to bad eyesight. If i don't wear glasses for an entire day I have "better" eyesight at the end of the day. Soo I would think that making your eyes focus at different distances would make your brain adapt a bit better.

Ok, so this is probably gonna be obvious, but Ngl, I’m curious about it. I started wearing glasses in the 4th grade. Does that fact mean that I have genetic myopia, and that there’s nothing I can do to change it except lasik surgery?I also was born prematurely, and I read that that can play a big part in being myopic

[@AK47_414]

I would say that myopia at a young age isn’t pre genetics it’s more of you spending a lot of time staring at screens/ computers/televisions/etc. However this is just a guess. Sadly the only treatment for it is LASIK, glasses, or contacts. I also got my glasses in 4th grade . I hate them

[@kristianl7117]

If your parents/ grandparents have myopia, then it's probably genetic.

[@isaacbigboss76]

It's both genetic predisposition and spending too little time outdoors. Unfortunately there's only lasik that I know of, but when you think about it, it's amazing to live in a time when we can just get great eyesight in a single intervention

I don't know if eye exercises work or not but here is my experience. A few years ago i went to Arizona on vacation for a month. I have a good friend there and stayed with his family. Me and this guy went to work (some project he worked in Flagstaff) We had the mountain range in sight and people were climbing rhe mountains on trails. We often through the day looked at the people trying to focus on them. It was an involuntary move i guess trying to see who is on the trail. After about 3 weeks (the project took 1 month) i began to have problems with my glasses (vision) it was like i couldn't focus with my glasses on. I thought maybe my vision was getting worse. But it turnd out that i was more comfortable without my glasses on . My vision was getting better just by trying to focus on a distant object many times a day for a few weeks. Thats all it took. Of course i came back home and every day things in a city with close proximity things got my vision to being bad again. Bottom line, there is some truth to this eye exercise thing.

[@lin_win7777]

Well, eye exercises is something people need to do. It’s like brushing teeth or body workout. The glasses prescription only makes it worse and eye muscles get weak. So, Bates method is what unis never teach about, they only teach about German based theory, which is actually wrong. Just moving your eyes isn’t enough. And you need to be careful too, if people have like -6, the exercise need to be mild. For Bates method, to relax your eyes just do palming exercises and sun bathing with closed eyes. I personally hate glasses and try to get rid of this burden by doing exercises. I only saw and experienced harm from glasses, and not help. So please don’t get caught up to this glasses business, most people don’t care about your health at all, only money. And all of this I know because of the doctor who literally helps people to get rid of the glasses. He shared all of that.

[@AntoniotheOptometrist]

I would work on taking breaks by looking out into the distance and also given the fact that you had been doing concentrated tasks it could also be a result of the eyes drying. Make sure to blink frequently when you crochet! Assuming you hadn't been near-sighted to begin with I would imagine the vision to come back slowly

I don't get it. You've made no argument as to why eyesight can't improve from exercises.

Iam 1.75 in one eye and 1.25 in another is my vision very bad

[@kristianl7117]

It's definitely too bad to not be wearing lenses or glasses, but it's not thaaaat bad. I have -4.5 on both eyes + astigmatism

Well i did 9 months eyes exercise. When go to doctors check and it got little worse. Of course its not because of exercise but i spend alot time on screen 8-10 hours . So basically exercise not going improve your vision vision . Stronger glasses will 😂

You are Blatantly Incorrect Antonio . I don't even want to listen to your add about wearing eyeglasses. I habe done this myself and they REALLY help. Try the exercises your self and then make a video. You didn't say the reasons why the exercise won't help. Other Drs. Have written these books..so were they wrong? Anyways. Just find another profession as people will learn to improve their eye sight

I think you are incorrect and closed minded about improving vision with eye exercises. Could it be that maybe if folks start improving their eyes naturally it could drive you out of business?? We can only hope.

You don't answer the question, so your video is bad as those who state something and give no evidence. Besides your on the biased side. What would be better is a scientific approach to testing before and after in a number of people. Sorry i watched your video since you really don't say anything.
