Naturally improve eyesight - this is the wish of many people. Eye wear can often be seen in a negative manner; it can feel uncomfortable and will change an individual's appearance. If you feel that your vision is deteriorating then there are various eye exercises you can practice so that you can put off having to wear glasses or contact lenses.

As we age our eyesight will deteriorate. This is because as we get older the strength of the muscles that control our vision weaken. Also, the shape of the lens of the eye alters. If you want to prolong good vision or improve that which has already weakened then it is best to avoid expensive prescriptions or surgery. If you start to use eye wear then it will not help to improve the actual medical issue that has led to poor vision. By using glasses your eyesight will feel as if it has improved but in actuality it will continue to worsen.

You can naturally improve eyesight from the comfort of our own home. The exercises which are known to strengthen the eye muscles can be carried out at any time of day. For the best results it is important to practice the techniques at least twice daily; the more you do them the better the outcome.

In many people the cause of the problem is due to sitting in front of a TV or computer screen for prolonged periods. When focusing on a bright image we have a tendency to blink less and also our eyes get used to only concentrating on near images. To counter balance this you can try staring at an object on the other side of the room for 30 seconds then again switching back to the screen and once more on a far object. If you can do this for ten minutes a day for a number of weeks you will start to see an improvement.

Usually we have one eye that is stronger than the other. It is important to develop the strength in both eyes as other wise we will use one more than the other and the difference in strength can increase.

By taking part a regular activity such as tennis or badminton you can also improve your vision. To play these sports you will need to focus on the ball or shuttlecock coming speeding towards you.

The more that you use your eyes to focus on a variety of objects and at differing distances the better your sight will become.
