from: EdwinEye Relaxation Exercises for Eye Strain
Eye relaxation exercises gives relief for dry eyes, computer eye
strain and other eye strain symptoms.
If your work is deskbound, or if you face the computer screen

blurred vision, headache.
From studies, very few people know how to rest their eye
effectively.
The following eye relaxation exercises will help you to relax
and reduce eye fatigue. You should repeat the relaxation
exercise after every 30 minutes of computer work.
Palming
1. Sit comfortably on a chair. Rub your hands together until
they feel warm.
2. Close the eyes and cover them lightly with your cupped palms.
Avoid applying pressure on your eye balls. Place the palm so
that the nose remain uncovered, and the eyes remain behind the
slight hollow of the palms.
4. Make sure that no light rays enter the eyes, and leave no
gaps between fingers or between the edge of the palms and the
nose.
5. You may still see other lingering traces of colors. Imagine
deep blackness and focus on the blackness.
6. Take deep breaths slowly and evenly, think of some happy
incident; or visualise a distant scene.
7. Repeat the palming for 3 minutes or more.
Looking at Distant Objects Our eyes are relax when they are made
to look at distance. If you are feeling strain after working at
your computer for some time, simply look out of a window or at
distant objects about 5 meters away from your work area.
If you eyes feel strained, they can be rested by doing this eye
relaxation exercise (i.e. looking at distant objects) for a few
minutes.
Rythmic Movements - Bar Swings
1. Find a window or a door which has verticle bars or grill.
2. Gaze through the bars, and look at distant objects.
3. Sway slowly and rythmically, just like the pendulum of a
clock. Keep your breathing rythmically too.
4. Transfer your weight from one foot to the other, and keep
your body muscles limp and lax.
5. 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.
6. Continue for 2 - 3 minutes or more.

loosely at your sides.
2. Gaze at a low-lying distant object, Shift your weight to your
right foot, and swing your upper body to the right, letting the
heel of your left foot come up off the floor. Watch your
surroundings as you swing. Breathe rythmically.
If you can see a tree out the window or in the distance, notice
how it seems to move opposite to the direction you are swinging.
3. Return to the original position.
4. Continue to swing to your left similarly.
5. While doing this eye relaxation exercises, breathe
rythmically and blink as you sway.

circulation around the eyeballs and face.

2. Apply first tower (either the warm or cold one) and compress
it to your face, eyebrows, closed eyelids and cheeks.
3. Apply the other, make sure you end the session with a cold
compress.
These compresses open up the small blood vessels of the face and
eyeballs, and therefore relieve eye strain.

a few seconds.
2. Allow the water on the face to dry on its own, and do not
wipe your face dry.

tension in the facial and eye muscles.
1. Soak a tower in warm or hot water. Rub your forehead, cheeks
and neck vigorously with the tower. However, do not rub your
eyes.
2. After this, gently massage your forehead and your closed
eyelids with finger tips.

Another useful eye relaxation exercise for your eye-muscles is
Magnetic Treatment.

magnetic waves emanating from the magnets rest the eyes and
relieve strain.
