None of us can deny that eyesight is one of the most precious gifts from above that we all enjoy and tend to take for granted.
Healthy eyes and clear vision can only be ours if we take absolutely great care of our eyes.
Thankfully, apart from traditional eye treatments and medicines, there are a number of alternative medicines that we can use to keep those windows to our souls shining nice and bright.
Firstly, did you know that just like the rest of your body, your eyes too can benefit immensely from regular exercise? These exercises can be done anywhere and at any time, and what you will get from doing them regularly are a pair of eyes in great shape -- healthy, soothed, and can help you see clearly for a really long time.
Do these gentle exercises everyday, especially if you spend long hours working in front of a computer screen.
One of the most popular eye exercises designed to lessen strain on the eyes is to rub your eyes gently till they feel slightly warm.
Regular yoga practice can also help keep your eyes and vision healthy.
Make sure your diet includes plenty of Vitamin A and herbs.
There are a quite few herbal eye drops available over the counter, designed to keep your eyes relaxed.
Placing cool cucumber slices or cold strawberries on your eyes can help erase puffiness, while splashing cold water at regular intervals will have a soothing effect on them.
Above all, never touch your eyes with unwashed fingers if you want to avoid catching some kind of an infection.
