wow sumbody actually asked. yes it does work. after only two months my doctor saw a significant improvement. my eyes go a little worse but he said the results were amazing! since i am still a preteen, most myopic kids my age would have had almost added half of their already existing prescription. but i have a theory of why my eyes did not improve. last year, i was check with -3.15 . however, i was at that stage when i hated wearing glasses because of my ugly look. so i went completely without my glasses for the whole summer. when i was checked in september 05, my doctor had said i had strained my eyes so much. after two months of eye exercises, my myopia had improved from my state of strain in the summer to what i am now even though it is still a little worse than my prescription 2 yrs ago

You just cant!!!\nIf you think of carrots??? No way!!! I think i have eaten 1 ton of carrots already and it still has no effect. I am using contacts all the time. If you have money..you can try lazer eye correction...but ifyou're poor like me, contacts will do miracles. It can even change the "color" of your eyes and its fun!!! I dont wear glasses.... people tend to look at me as nerd!!!

No, it does not improve your eyesight for someone who eats normal healthy food. It's good source of Vitamin A; which does help your eyesight, but doesn't necessarily improve it. Carrots improve your eyesight is just a myth... ;)

Depends. You play shooting games you can increase your eye accuracy. You play the RPG and strategy games you are able to upgrade you skill of interpreting things. When it is all about fun you get nothing

You see by using muscles in your eyes, so if you didn't use those muscles for a few months your muscles would experince atrophy and won't work right for a while.  I don't think you would go completely blind though.  It's like in the movie kill bill when Uma's in a coma and can't walk for a while.

It worked great for me!\n\nThere is some risk, though.  Make sure that you research on the internet, find and talk to people who have done this, and be prepared to accept a little risk -- no one can guarentee a perfect result.\n\nMy eyesight was extremely poor (worse then 20/200), but not hovers between 20/15 and 20/20.\n\nGood luck!

Found the free eye exercises for Myopia from Wikipedia. \n\nI tried them for few weeks. Showing results slowly - but you need to be disciplined to do the exercises daily. \n\nI didn't follow all the eye exercises sequence. I only pick those that I like. Not sure if that's the right thing to do.\n:)

Some eye care professionals recommend exercises to help improve circulation, reduce eye strain, and relax the eye muscles. The Bates method is a common set of exercises. It is possible that by combining exercises with changes in behavior, the progression of myopia may be slowed or prevented. Alternative treatments include: visual therapy (also referred to as vision training or eye exercises); discontinuing close work; reducing eye strain (taking a rest break during periods of prolonged near vision tasks); and wearing bifocals to decrease the need to accommodate when doing close-up work.\nThe following nutritional supplements may help improve vision:\n• Vitamin A: essential vitamin for healthy eyes.\n• Bioflavonoids. These plant chemicals can help myopic people see better, especially at night\n• Zinc: may improve night vision\n• Ginkgo extract: increases blood supply to the eye. It may help prevent deterioration in vision.

I do believe so. My mom had it. Her doctor advised her to close her good eye with one hand, and 'exercise' the lazy eye by focusing on objects.

Do exercises.\nThis might sound crazy, but it's true! \nThink about it! It's like any other muscles in your body, they all need axercise to stay in shape.\n\nJust when you get time (especially in the morning) sit down and do some exercise. Move your eyes from side to side, up and down, zig zag, circle, square, all for about 5 min. and you're done! Do it every day!\n\nI do it! I have perfect 20/20 vision. Of cource you never know if it's from that, but I wouldn't discount it! \nIf nothing else, your eyes do feel better afterwards!\n\nChears!\n\nP.S.-don't use spell checker here, it messes everything up!

no- your eyes will stabalise at one level, unfortunetly they wont ever improve. corrective lenses can help as can laser surgery

'Palming.'To rest and relax your eyes, sit comfortably in front of a table, resting your elbows on a stack of cushions high enough to bring your palms easily to your eyes without stooping forward or looking up. Close your eyes and cover them with your cupped palms to exclude light, avoiding pressure on the sockets. Breathe slowly and evenly, relaxing and imagining deep blackness. Begin by doing this for 10 minutes, two or three times a day. \n\n'Swinging.' Relax and keep the eyes mobile. Stand up and focus on a distant point, swaying gently from side to side. Repeat 100 times daily, blinking as you sway. Blinking cleans and lubricates the eyes, which is especially important if you spend a lot of time in front of a computer. \n\n'Colour day.' You may be asked to have a 'colour day.' Choose a colour and look out for it throughout the day. When you see it, be aware of the colour rather than the form. For example, if it's a red truck, experience the shade of red, not the truck. \n\n'Sunning' Try to do this once a day. It requires a sunny day, or a good desk lamp with an incandescent bulb. The exercise is simple. Close your eyes. Look directly at the sun through \nyour closed eyes. While facing the sun, slowly rotate your head from side to side as far as you can. \nThis gets the sunlight on the peripheral vision, and it helps bring more blood circulation to your neck. Do this for 3 to 5 minutes. It's amazing, even on a cold day, how warm the sun feels on your eyes.\n\nEYE EXERCISE TIPS\n\n- General tips when doing eye exercises Please take off your glasses or contact lenses, you will then feel more comfortable and relaxed. \n \n- When doing the exercises, intensely concentrate on your eyes. Feel them working and coming to life again! \n    \n- Do them on a regular basis, e.g. ideally 3 times a day. The results will be better.

Lasik is the way to go. All the other "natural Methods" may improve the sight while you do the exercises but once you quit, it goes back to how it was before. See your local Ophthalmologist.

I find using eyedrops, such as Visine, helps. That, or rinsing your eyes with water.

I've been wearing glasses for about seven years now, I'm 18, and honestly I don't give a rats ass about what people think. I think that glasses are becoming in style now and you shouldn't be ashamed of wearing them if you need them. Though, not that I care about what others think, I'm trying to heal my eyesight the natural way, as laser eye surgery is not always a fool proof solution and is so expensive. I am going to use the Bates method to try and heal my eyesight, as I don't like relying on glasses to see, I want to be able to see clearly using my own eyes again. I want to wear sunglasses. I don't want to be restricted to not playing certain sports. For these personal reasons, I don't like wearing glasses, as they are crutches. I recommend you watch a DVD called "Yoga For Your Eyes" by Meir Schneider if you are interested in healing your eyes. Schneider was born legally blind and healed his eyes and is now able to legally drive without glasses. Good luck :)
