			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In order to improve our vision, we have been trying out some eye exercises and have found that they are pretty effective. From time to time, we run across individuals that claim these exercises that do not do any good. Maybe that is because they do not try the correct exercises? If you are looking for eye vision improvement exercises, then we would like for you to read this article. The previous article you read may have been written by someone that used the wrong exercises, so give it a chance and read this article.</p>
<p>The first exercise we have for you involves sitting comfortably in front of a window. Get a sticker, or a piece of tape that is black in color. Start by focusing on the sticker for about twenty seconds, then look out the window for twenty seconds. Keep alternating between those two.</p>
<p>Next is the blinking exercise. This is an exercise that is overlooked a lot, but it is simple to use, Every three to four seconds, just blink your eyes. You can do this while you are writing or you may choose to sit somewhere comfortable and relax to do this. The choice is up to you.</p>
<p>Write numbers and letters that are different sizes on a soccer ball, kickball and softball. Hang them from the ceiling on a string and give them a knock in any direction you choose. When it swings, call out the numbers and letters you see. This is a simple technique that does not involve much.</p>
<p>This exercise involves following your thumb. A couple of times throughout the day, hold up your thumbs in front of you about an arm&#8217;s length away and move them in circles, X&#8217;s and crosses. You can use in and out motions as well. Without moving your head, follow your thumb.</p>
<p>As you see, there are many vision improvement exercises that you can use. Believe it or not, there are even more exercises than this. Some of those exercises consist of palming, looking away, etc. Next: Learn more about vision improvement by following the links below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you spend a lot of your time staring at that computer screen during work? If this is true, then we are sure you realize just how tiring and draining that can be for your eyes as well as your entire body. For those of you that would like to maintain the health of your eyes, we highly recommend looking into yoga for the eyes. Yes, there is a such thing as eye yoga and it is just starting to become popular today.</p>
<p>When you are doing this, you will need to relax and remove everything from your mind. Basically, it is like any other form of yoga, except you are using your eyes and concentrating on them. Through this form of yoga, you will be improving your visual concentration.</p>
<p>In order to improve that visual concentration, you will need to strengthen it. Find a comfortable place where you can sit with your neck and back straight, but it should not be stiff. Hold your posture for a couple of minutes, then increase that gradually.</p>
<p>Concentrate on gazing at the tip of your nose. During this time, you should not blink. Stay like this for as long as you possibly can. When you&#8217;re done, close your eyes and relax.</p>
<p>Concentrate on that third eye. While you are doing this, you should not blink. For those of you that do not know, the third eye is that area that is above your nose between your eyebrows. When you have concentrated on it, close your eyes and relax. At first, it may seem hard to do or uncomfortable, but you should not let yourself get frustrated.</p>
<p>You see, there are many forms of yoga for eye exercises that you can do. Nearly every single one of them involves the individual concentrating and getting rid of all the stress. When you do this, you will be maintaining the health of your eyes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Bates really is a mastermind and his vision improvement techniques are not something that have just surfaced. In fact, Dr. Bates was an eye-care physician from the year 1860 to 1931. He believed that glasses were never necessary and harmful. He stated that all eyesight problems were due to the strain of eyes. As he was an M. D., he published a book along with a magazine, which detailed the approach he takes at helping individuals improve their vision. As we continue forward with this article, we would like to take a closer look at Dr. Bates and vision improvement.</p>
<p>Dr. Bates claimed that individuals would be able to improve their eyesight with the techniques he had in mind. These techniques were centered around movement and visualization. He would place a lot of attention on imaging letters and marks that were black. He also stated that exposing the eyes to sun would alleviate the strain.</p>
<p>Aldous Huxley, who was a British writer claimed that he used Dr. Bates theories and his sight has greatly improved. Many question if his vision was truly improved or not. Despite many reports of successful results, the &#8216;Bates&#8221; techniques have not been proved to improve eyesight.</p>
<p>Bates stated that corrective lenses, which he referred to as &#8220;eye crutches&#8221; would not cure vision and was only an impediment. He recommended that anyone using glasses should discard them and begin applying his method. He discussed a number of treatments in writing that he claimed would help individuals with their sight.</p>
<p>For one of his techniques, he suggested the patient closing their eyes for a couple of minutes in order to bring about relaxation. He stated that you could increase that relaxation by &#8220;palming, &#8221; which means covering your eyes with the palms of your hands. Dr. Bates and vision improvement will be considered for many years to come.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have people really improved their vision with eye exercises? This is a question that has been asked by many individuals. Some people will say it won&#8217;t, but then you have others that say it does. There are individuals out there that say that it has improved their vision. Honestly, we believe this is something that is worth the try. Eye exercises are not something that is new. They have been around for many years now. As we continue this article, we would like to take a closer look at some of those exercises that have been used in order to improve vision.</p>
<p>There is no denying that eyes need regular exercise in order to stay healthy, they are just like any other part of our body. Many individuals take it for granted that the eyes are going to eventually give up on them and they will need contact lenses or glasses. With regular eye exercises, this does not have to be the case. If you start to wear contact lenses or glasses, then you may cause your eyes to get worse, instead of getting better. Simply put, exercising those eyes allows them to become stronger.</p>
<p>There are many exercises out there that you can use in order to improve your eyes. First of all, you have the blinking exercise. This exercise is generally overlooked, but it is very simple to do and will help to keep your eyes fresh.</p>
<p>For the next couple of minutes, blink your eyes every three to four seconds. After you have done this, take note of how your eyes feel. Do they feel relaxed? Tired? Now, try not to blink for thirty seconds at a time for two minutes. Do you feel the difference?</p>
<p>In our honest opinion, we believe eye exercises really do work. For those of you who do not believe us, why don&#8217;t you give it a try? Next: Learn more about natural vision improvement by following the links below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you want to flaunt your eyes and see the world around you directly by getting rid of your glasses? There is good news for people. The alternative theory of natural vision improvement can be a solution. This concept was pioneered by Dr William Horatio Bates an ophthalmologist from America a century ago. The method has been named after the inventor as The Bates method which is more like an educational solution having to do with eye care, relaxation and exercises of the eye. This has nothing to do with medicines.</p>
<p>The users of this method have been benefited in reducing their lens magnitude and even in some cases has become spectacle free. But the Bates method is not supported by medical evidence.</p>
<p>But it has been widely popular and effective. It is lifestyle method which improves eyesight without any optical devices. It is based on some exercises and has a workout plan which help to improve the vision naturally.</p>
<p>Spending some minutes every day may yield results. Some ways of the natural vision improvement are:</p>
<p>Practicing speed reading habits and good vision habits while doing work in a close area will improve the vision at close-up.</p>
<p>The method concentrates in relaxing the muscles in the eye area and the shape of the eyeball. The natural technique can claims to relieve a number of problems like myopia, presbyopia, astigmatism, glaucoma, cataract, amblyopia, double vision, blurry vision, eyestrain, eye pain.</p>
<p>The exercise works well if maintained with a secret which is the sequence. There are number of exercises which have to be done according to the schedule in the right order for the required amount of time. This natural vision improvement program not only concentrates on the eyes but also on psychological factors.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Maintaining good vision is very important, as much as 80% of the information you obtain from the world around you is received through your eyesight! The history of natural vision improvement dates back to Dr. William Bated who was born in 1860 and died in 1931. He was a distinguished eye surgeon who was not happy with the fact that glasses were used as a standard for curing visual impairment.</p>
<p>Over the millennia our eyes have changed in keeping with the way we live our lives. Hunter, gatherers of the past used their eyes for both long distance and close examination at all times, for example looking into the distance in search of food or enemies, and in the next breath closely examining a berry filled bush. This kept the eye muscles agile which in turn allows for keen vision.</p>
<p>Times changed, particularly with the industrial revolution, and today people spend many hours immobile with their eyes fixed on a specific task. The eye muscles no longer receive the type of exercise they require to keep agile and many unnecessary eye problems occur.</p>
<p>Dr. Bates spent many years researching vision, he concluded that strain in the eyes was caused by mental strain or stress and poor lifestyle. This led to ocular dysfunction such as double vision, blurriness, sensitivity to light and other problems. He also spent time studying people with perfect sight and noted that the function of the eyes was different.</p>
<p>The outcome of his studies led him to treat his patients by teaching them to relax and also exercise the eyes. The outcome of this was that the visual brain and eyes were often restored to maximum potential.</p>
<p>His techniques have spread and are still used world-wide, many people have improved and regularly perfected their vision by means of his methods. He wrote a book for this purpose called &#8220;Better Eyesight without Glasses&#8221; which is published by Grafton Press.</p>
<p>Natural vision improvement can help to improve the health of the eye. It is a holistic approach which includes simple exercises and habits which are key to maintaining and improving good eyesight. The majority of your vision occurs in the brain, these exercises help the brain to make more meaning of the visual world.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are sure you know just how important it is to keep your body fit. We do this by jogging, swimming, biking and going to the gym. However, do you know how important it is to exercise your eyes as well? What? Did you just say that you never heard of eye exercises before? Honestly, there are simple eye exercises you can do that might help out. What do eye exercises do? Well, they may help to minimize eyestrain and help to keep your eyes healthy. If you like the idea of keeping your eyes healthy, then continue reading the rest of this article to learn some simple exercises.</p>
<p>First of all, find a comfortable seat. Rub your hands together until you have generated some warmth. Close your eyes and cover them with your palms. You should not put any pressure on your eyes. Make sure no light is entering the eyes. Imagine a deep area of blackness and concentrate on that blackness. Evenly and slowly start to take deep breaths as you are thinking of something happy. Begin to visualize a distant scene. When your eyes do not see anything but blackness, move your hands away from your eyes and repeat this.</p>
<p>For anywhere from three to five seconds, you should close your eyes tightly, then open them for another three to five seconds. Do this for about seven to eight times.</p>
<p>As you are sitting in a comfortable chair, roll your eyes clockwise, then roll them counter-clockwise. Do this five times and blink in between those times.</p>
<p>Sit in front of a window, put a mark on the window. This could be a small sticker that is either red or black. Look through that mark and then focus on something that is far around for about fifteen seconds. Then, focus on that mark again. As you see, there are many simple eye exercises that you can do.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dr Bates championed vision improvement and devised many different techniques which he claimed improved a patient&#8217;s eyesight. He claimed that strain on the eyes to see was infinite, and he devised a method of relieving the strain.</p>
<p>He particularly explained that a set approach would not work for everyone, and so Dr. Bates became a well known alternative therapist. This is still widely practiced today.</p>
<p>He used techniques designed to dissociate strain and then achieve central seeing; which is the central point of vision omitting staring. He claimed that all errors of refraction and disturbances of function disappear when the eyes see by central fixation; and if there were any other associated conditions they too would be relieved. He also stated that exposing the eyes to sunlight would improve vision.</p>
<p>Medical associates have criticized Dr. Bates methodology and have stated what negative consequences could occur if patients followed the protocol; especially if their eyes are over exposed to sunlight. They also stated that it would be negligent to not wear corrective lenses while driving and would worsen or even cause serious implications to the eyes.</p>
<p>One of his techniques to vision improvement was closing the eyes which would help relax them; the patient would cover their eyes with their palms applying no pressure at all to the eyeballs. The theory behind this method was to eliminate light creating total relaxation of the eyes. Although some patients stated that they have illusions of light and colour; Bates claimed these would totally disappear when the eyes were relaxed.</p>
<p>The Bates Association for Vision Education are qualified professionals that teach the Bates method for vision improvement. The teachers mostly work with children, but offer individual lessons to adults.</p>
<p>Workshops and lectures as well as training are offered on an ongoing basis. Pupils are taught how to improve their eyesight without having corrective surgery; as well as teaching how to increase the chances of eliminating degenerative eye disease. Black lettering is used as well as the swing method to help correct vision.</p>
<p>It is debatable as to whether these methods really work; or maybe it is mind over matter and those that claim that there is improvement could be purely from &#8220;autosuggestion&#8221;. Dr. Bates and vision improvement has no solid evidence of proof that this therapy actually works. However, many individuals claim that it does.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been using the rebuild your vision program and I have seen results&#8230;</p>
<p>But, I have also discovered something that has been holding me back too: I&#8217;m not consistent with the program.</p>
<p>By not being consistent, I unfortunately saw my vision become a quarter diopter worse again on my last visit.</p>
<p>So, if you are going to use the Rebuild Your Vision program, make SURE that you are going to be consistent. Put your 25 minutes a day in faithfully and you should see excellent results over the long term.</p>
<p>Of course, check with your eye doctor if you have a visual problem, etc.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><a href="http://tobeinformed.com/vision-improvement" target="_blank"><img style="WIDTH: 225px; HEIGHT: 154px" height="154" alt="eyes" hspace="10" src="http://www.tobeinformed.com/visionimprovement/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/eyes.jpg" width="225" align="left" vspace="10" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>In this age of near-point work we are all hunched over our desks and computers. Blood flow is minimized and stress is maximized. Just sitting at a desk is an unnatural position for the human body and we do it &#8211; ALL DAY LONG.</p>
<p>In addition, people do not know how to relax their eyes and get them to function better. Their eyes get stressed out too. And they over-work at one particular distance. In order to get ourselves to see better we must utilize the best techniques we can find.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://tobeinformed.com/vision-improvement"><img height="96" alt="Learn-More-About-vision-improvement 1" hspace="10" src="http://tobeinformed.com/visionimprovement/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/learn-more-about-vision-improvement-1.gif" width="180" vspace="10" /></a></p>
<p>Is it possible to improve the vision? Well, there are many who have improved their vision. I have seen a slight improvement myself. But due to stress and worry, I can see it go backwards too. Vision can actually change from day to day, getting worse or better. It does not stay static.</p>
<p>You have to stay on top of it. Results will vary. Even if you can&#8217;t fully get rid of glasses, wouldn&#8217;t it be cool for your eyes to NOT get worse.</p>
<p>Lot&#8217;s of people would be happy with that result. But there are those who are able to fully throw their glasses away.</p>
<p>As for me. I&#8217;ve worn glasses since I was five. My prescription it less than it was about 20 years ago. But I have not fully regained my vision without glasses. In fact, I still have a ways to go.</p>
<p>Yet, I&#8217;ll be happy to maintain and avoid the bifocal thing that generally happens after 40.</p>
<p>One concept in natural vision improvement is the belief, and you can check this out with eye doctors, that vision will get worse just by having the crutch of glasses / contacts.</p>
