Do you know that over fifty per cent of Americans wear either glasses or contact lenses? Glasses and contacts might help improve your vision, but they are just a temporary fix. Glasses and lenses will never permanently improve your vision. While glasses and contact lenses do help you see more clearly, they address only the symptoms of your eye problems and will not solve the actual problem.
The biggest drawback to artificial lenses is that they teach you bad habits and force your eyes to work in a way they were never intended to by nature. You have become dependent on the very lenses that prevent your eyes from healing themselves. If you could teach your eyes, more specifically the muscles around your eyes, to relax, your need for glasses would disappear and you would improve your eyesight naturally.
Mental stress and strain on the eyes is the primary cause of all eye ailments. The key is to learn how to avoid strain in the first place. You might not be able to avoid strain altogether, but the first step is to learn new habits to reduce it as much as possible.
Perhaps the most difficult problem with artificial lenses is finding just the right prescription. Your eyes are always changing. There are several variables that influence how well you see. Weather, distractions, your health, your mood and outside stressors all play a role in your vision. When it’s bright and sunny out our moods are usually better and so is our eyesight. It is impossible for a doctor to find the perfect prescription. If you go to the doctor when you are in a bad mood and its dark and rainy outside, your prescription will reflect this. Then your glasses or contacts might not work well at all when you are happy and it’s bright out.
Try to go without your contacts or glasses for a three or four weeks and see what happens. You might be pleasantly surprised at what happens. At first everything might be blurry, but then your eyes will start to adjust. They will be able to relax without artificial lenses and things will become more clear. You need also to be free of too much mental strain. Try some relaxation exercises and give your eyes a rest when things begin to get out of focus.
Wearing artificial lenses can make our eyes lazy and teach us many bad habits. Learn why certain relaxation techniques can improve eyesight at Improve Eyesight Naturally.
