The Eyes Still Have It

It’s best if you follow along in the video, but in case you prefer to know what to expect, the 5 exercises are:

1. Blink for a minute: blinking relaxes your eyes by lubricating, cleaning, and shielding them from light. Lack of frequent blinking can cause dryness, inflammation, and blurred vision. Open and close your eyelids quickly but gently for 30–60 seconds—ideal for anyone focusing on screens or detailed work.
2. Close your eyes: darkness helps rest and strengthen the photoreceptor cells in your eyes. Sit back, close your eyes fully, and relax your eyelids for about 30 seconds. Think about something pleasant to help your eye muscles unwind. It’s as easy as that!
3. Move your gaze in different directions: improves overall visual perception and benefits both nearsighted and farsighted vision. Look right to left for 5 seconds, then up and down for 5 seconds. Next, move your eyes in slow circular motions for 10–15 seconds, and finish by tracing a figure eight with your gaze.
4. Draw geometric figures with your gaze: with your eyes open, trace simple shapes—e.g. triangles, rectangles, squares, and circles—then progress to more complex figures. This improves eye coordination and range of movement.
5. Move your eyeballs up and down: close your eyes and slowly move your eyeballs up and down about 5–10 times. Keep the movement gentle and deliberate to relax your eye muscles.
