Our Eyes are the most important part of our body - Without eyes, our life will be full of darkness. So it is of utmost importance that we take care of our eyes.
In Today's world , we do a lot of things which causes tremendous strain on the eyes - Long hours of sitting in front of computers, watching televisions, playing video games etc .. New gadgets entice people to sit and engrosses them so much that we forget to take care of our own health, especially the eyes.
We can't do away with computers and televisions, since it is not only a part of our daily life but also a profession for most of us - so let's atleast ensure that we take breaks in between and give our eyes the much needed rest.
Balance is what life is all about - That goes for our eyes too - If you look and stare at computers and televisions for long hours - it is also necessary that you look at far away objects or just gaze at the sky to balance it out. Look out of the windows and check out the green trees , birds flying, clouds in the sky - this will relax the eyes .
If not everyday, atleast once or twice a week, do eye exercises to strengthen the eye muscles. Rotate the eyes clockwise slowly for 5-6 times and then repeat the exercise in the opposite anti-clockwise direction. Then close your eyes for a few minutes. Similarly when you get a chance, do the tratak exercise advocated in Yoga - In a room at night, Burn a lamp , sit at a distance of few feet from the lamp and look at the burning light without blinking - Tears will flow from your eyes after a few minutes and this will clear the dust particles in your eyes and make it more clear.
Another simple routine one can follow is closing both the eyes, and putting the inner palm of both the hands on the eyes for a few minutes.
Also ensure that you eat plenty of carrots and raw vegetables that gives Vitamins which are good for the eyes.
Take care of your eyes - It is your window to the world !
