Here are some of the most common causes of eyesight problems and what you can do about them.
Threadđź§µ
*Standard disclaimer that this does not constitute medical advise*
Now this thread is about improving your eyesight in general and not resolving a specific issue.
You will actually improve to various degrees most issues most likely, but once again the purpose of this is not…
The 7 most common eye problems are:
1)Nearsightedness
2)Farsightedness (not the same as presbyopia)
3)Presbyopia
4)Astigmatism
5)Macular degeneration
6)Glaucoma
7)Cataracts
All of which can have their roots in the same causes (just like lots of health issues) so let's see…
Cause number 1: Excessive serotonin.
How can serotonin be linked to eyesight problems?
Well, serotonin constricts the blood vessels and since arteries carry blood to the retinas, without enough blood flow, the cells in the retina don't get enough oxygen and problems with your…
Cause number 2: Lack of....DHA.
HOLD ON YOU SN-1/3 FREAKS.
When i talk about DHA i am NOT talking about microplastic filled shrimp, salmon with dye in it (i wish i was kidding) or fish oils.
What i suggest is some plain bone in white fish (get the entire thing) for most…
Cause number 3: Suboptimal glucose metabolism.
When the blood sugar levels exceed a certain point (the best test is obviously A1C), the blood vessels in the retina literally leak blood and some other fluids resulting in the retinal tissue to swell.
So let's see a few things…
Cause number 4: Too much artificial blue light exposure and not much sunlight exposure
Blue light exists in nature and has many benefits for our well being.
But the downsides of blue light in nature are balanced by the red light that also exists in nature (this is the reason…
Also, since some people work from home, try working from yoyouralcony or your backyard in case you have this option.
Working outdoors, will not only help minimize the negative effects of blue light,but it also gives you 5 times the energy compared to working indoors.
In…
Cause number 5: Making your eyes lazy by staring at a screen or a book all day
Start staring at far distances multiple times per day but, when you do this, make sure to give your eyes more rest as well preferably with short naps (no kidding) or palming.
Palming is a yogic eye…
But since unfortunately most of us spend a lot of time inside cities and indoors, our peripheral vision has taken a hit and the solutions to these are 2, a daily walk in the wilderness if possible and a simple set of “eye exercises “ if you want to call them that.
For the first…
Now the next exercise is more tiring so you may need to lower the “reps” and increase the rest time.
Start by holding your thumb about a few inches (5-10) from your face and focus on it for 10-15 seconds.
Then find an object that’s far away in the distance and focus on it for…
Cause number 6: Stressful states such as improper sleep, overtraining, malnutrition, chronic carb depletion and drinking alcohol on a regular basis.
Stress will raise cortisol and this will lead to a bunch of mess from shifting the thyroid into a more inactive state, elevating…
Cause number 7: Gut issues
Any sort of gut problem will always lead to an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Activated NKG2D+CD8+ cells produce the Th1 cytokine interferon-Îł for example.
And this is without even mentioning endotoxins, systemic inflammation and the…
That was it.
If you actually address these 7 causes, the chances of you enencounteringyesight issues will dramatically drop and your chances of improving your eyesight will greatly improve.
