Improving your eyesight naturally, especially for mild myopia (-0.75), can be possible to some extent with certain lifestyle changes, exercises, and good habits, though significant improvement typically requires medical interventions like LASIK. Here are some tips that might help slow progression or support better visual health:
1. Eye Exercises and Relaxation:
20-20-20 Rule: Every 20 minutes, look at an object 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. This reduces eye strain from screens or reading.
Palming: Rub your hands together to create warmth and gently place them over your closed eyes for a few minutes to relax the muscles.
Focus Shifting: Alternate focus between a nearby object (10-15 cm away) and a distant object to strengthen focus muscles.
Eye Rolls: Slowly roll your eyes in circular motions to relax and strengthen eye muscles.
2. Healthy Diet for Vision:
Include foods rich in:
Vitamin A: Carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach.
Lutein and Zeaxanthin: Kale, spinach, eggs.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Fish like salmon, flaxseeds, walnuts.
Vitamin C and E: Oranges, almonds, sunflower seeds.
3. Limit Screen Time and Use Proper Lighting:
Reduce screen exposure, and use blue light-blocking glasses if needed.
Maintain proper lighting while reading or working.
4. Practice Outdoor Activities:
Spending time outdoors in natural sunlight has been shown to reduce the progression of myopia, especially in children.
5. Take Breaks from Glasses:
Use your glasses only when needed (e.g., driving, board reading) to prevent over-reliance. However, if things are blurry without them, don't avoid using them, as straining your eyes might worsen the condition.
6. Regular Check-ups:
Consult an optometrist to monitor your vision. They can suggest exercises or therapies if needed.
7. Medical Options:
If you're looking for permanent solutions, you can explore options like LASIK or Ortho-K lenses (overnight corrective lenses) with an eye specialist.
While mild myopia doesn't usually worsen dramatically, these habits can help improve your overall eye health. Keep me updated, and let me know if you'd like detailed tips on any of these!

Getting back your eyesight naturally, especially with a slight prescription like -0.75, is a challenge that many people want to tackle. While Ayurveda doesn't promise miracles, there are definitely some safe and practical ways to support eye health and possibly improve your vision.
Firstly, consider your diet. Eating foods rich in vitamin A like carrots and leafy greens can be beneficial. Try to include more amla (Indian gooseberry) in your diest as it's loaded with vitamin C, which is great for your eyes. You can take it in form of juice or churna daily. Also, ensuring you have a balanced diet with omega-3 fatty acids, found in flaxseeds and walnuts, might help too.
Then, there are eye exercises. Simple things like palming (rubbing your hands together to generate heat and then placing them over your closed eyes) can relax your eyes. Trataka, a practice involving gazing at a candle flame, supposedly helps in focusing — do it daily for like 5-10 minutes, but with caution and if you feel any strain, just stop.
Take regular breaks from screens, follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. It helps reduce eye strain. Splashing your eyes with cold water in the morning can also be refreshing.
Stress can affect vision too, so practices like meditation and yoga could be beneficial in this case. Try pranayama, especially anulom vilom with regularity.
Lastly, make sure you're getting quality sleep. It sounds simple, but rest is crucial for allowing your eyes the time to recover and rejuvinate.
Be patient; these things take time, and consistency is key. It's really important tho' to keep pairing any self-care methods with regular check-ups with an eye specialist to monitor any changes. While all these methods can support healthy eyes, they might not necessarily replace the need for glasses.
