Eye Care Natural Cure
It is very important to take care of the eyes, a body part we often take for granted and ignore. It is important to maintain a healthy balanced diet, rich in Vitamins, especially Vitamin A which is beneficial for the eyes. Fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, carrots, spinach, citrus fruits, milk and milk products are very good for the eyes.
Ensure that you consume adequate water and fresh juice in a day, keeping your body well hydrated and thus ensuring that your eyes do not dry. Also wash your eyes with fresh cold water 4 to 5 times a day to keep them clean, cool and moist. If your work involves sitting in front of the computer screen for long stretches, make a conscious effort to blink your eyes 5 to 6 times every half an hour to restore the moisture in your eyes.
Also exercise your eyes by sitting straight, breathing deeply and rotating your eyes clockwise and anti-clockwise 10 to 15 times each. Defocus by rubbing your palms together to warm them and place them over your closed eyes. When you open your eyes focus for a minutes on any other object apart from the computer. This helps to relax the eyes and relieves the pain. A useful asana involves filling your mouth with cold water and storing it while cleaning your eyes with fresh, cool water.
Apart from this, you can apply cool, soaked used tea bags over your eyes to reduce the inflammation, swelling and pain. Similarly placing a slice of potato or cucumber on your eyes for 10 to 15 minutes keeps your eyes healthy, alleviates stress and pain.
Take a few fresh rose petals and a few raspberry leaves and let them soak in a glass of water. Wash your eyes with this water for instant relief to exhausted eyes as well as a good treatment for cataract.
