Importance of eyes - we all know!     1. It is possible that we might lose eye sight, gradually, without even our noticing it, till it becomes a major problem.   If you find yourself suffering from sudden and temporary blurred vision, changes in your night vision, changes in how you read and write, increased clumsiness (brushing more and more against objects) or an increased sensitivity to light, then you may be developing an eyesight problem. Consult the eye specialist.   2. Natural ways to maintain / improve your eyesight: a) Eye -friendly Diet: Eating a healthy diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables will keep your eyesight from deteriorating and might even help improve it! Vitamin A, C, and E, are all important to eye health as well as foods rich in antioxidants.   Also, don't forget to add Omega 3 to your regular diet. These fatty acids are essential nutrients that have great health benefits. Most people know that they are good for your heart, but many don't realize that it can help keep your retinas healthy and slow down age-related eyesight deterioration.   To get all of these great nutrients, you can eat more things like kale, chard, collards, spinach and carrots. Salmon and tuna are excellent for omega 3 and if you want even more beneficial non-meat protein you can have some bananas, beans or nuts.   It's important to remember that a change in your diet alone will only protect your eyes from more harm and can only lead to a minor improvement in your sight.   2 b. Perform Eye Exercises One of the best ways to naturally improve your vision is to perform daily eye exercises. Don't forget, your eyes have muscles just like your arms or legs.   Start by doing an eye "warm up", rub your palms together and place them over your eyes. Hold your hands over your eyes for five to 10 seconds, and repeat 3-4 times.   Your first exercise should be to just roll your eyes up and down without straining them too much. Look up as far as you can, and then look down. Repeat this 10 times. Now look to each side, repeating 10 times. Finally, roll your eyes in a clockwise motion about 10 times, then reverse the movement and roll them counter-clockwise 10 times as well.   When you are done, grab a pen or a pencil and hold it at arm's length, making sure it is at eye level. Focus on the tip as you slowly move it closer to your eyes. Always focus on the tip as you move it closer to you, and then back to arm's length. Repeat this 9 more times.   When you're done, massage your temples with your fingertips and gently move to your eyebrows and under your eyes as well. If your eyes feel tired close them and let them rest for a few moments. Just like at the gym, these muscles can get tired if you overwork them.   But above all, consult a specialist periodically and also immediately when you notice even a minor variation to ur sight.   Eyes are important- no one need to tell us that.
