Many people I know advice me that doing eye exercises will help improve my vision and if I do them for quite some time, that I will not need glasses any more. Is this true? When I google this, all I get are advertisements.
Moonbear said:If you are prone to eye fatigue or eye strain, exercises can help. For example, if your vision seems to get worse after spending a lot of time studying or working at a computer, then consider eye exercises.
There is currently no scientific evidence to support the claim that eye exercises can improve vision without glasses. While certain exercises may help with eye strain and fatigue, they cannot correct underlying vision problems such as nearsightedness or astigmatism.
There are many different types of eye exercises that claim to improve vision, such as the Bates Method and the See Clearly Method. However, there is no scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of these exercises.
No, eye exercises cannot prevent the need for glasses or contact lenses. Vision problems are caused by physical changes in the eye, and these exercises cannot reverse or prevent these changes.
The effectiveness of eye exercises varies from person to person, and there is no specific timeline for seeing results. Some people may experience temporary improvements in their vision, but these are often short-lived.
While eye exercises are generally considered safe, there are some potential risks and side effects. These may include eye strain, fatigue, and headaches. It is important to consult with an eye doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
