Charge for the eyes against myopia and asthenopia.

For the life of a person it is necessary to have a clear vision of the objects that surround it, and it must be clear at different distances. Only in this case a healthy person can feel as comfortable and at ease. To long time to keep a "clear view" of things it is desirable to systematically do exercises that help the eyes to relax and relax. Gymnastics or gymnastics for the eyes is recognized as an effective measure of the fight against the development of myopia. It helps to develop accommodation, which prevents the functional inaction of the eye.

According to the deserved ophthalmologist E.S. Avetisova, accommodation is the only mechanism of optical adaptation of the eye to any distances. Often people stop using their accommodation, because Due to their professional duties and personal hobbies (watching movies and playing games on the computer), many fail to distract their eyes from nearby objects during the day. When a person looks constantly at nearby objects, his eye is at maximum tension. The ciliary muscle, which is responsible for the act of accommodation, can spasmodize from such overstrain and provoke the development of false, or, as it is called, functional myopia. As a rule, people neglect to do exercises for the eyes when working at a computer or long reading. They are easier to go to the nearest optics and buy glasses or contact lenses to regain clarity of vision. Wearing glasses helps the functional myopia very quickly to become true.

Charge for the eyes is very useful, effective and not too difficult to perform, as some believe. Only at the very beginning it is necessary to make a small effort to introduce visual gymnastics into your habit, which in the future will get rid of many problems, including optical correction.

Techniques for the treatment of accommodative spasm and prevention of myopia can be conditionally divided into five specific groups.

• Correcting and preventive action of optical lenses. This is a special charge for the eyes with the help of optics, which is used only during the training. Commonly recognized similar plan exercises are trainings with replaceable lenses by E.S. Avetisov - K.A. Matz, optical and distant micro-clouding according to A.I. Dashevsky, divergent deaccommodation, swinging in V.V. Volkov, L.N. Kolesnikova, physiological optical massage by V.V. Kovalenko and the like. These classes are carried out in ophthalmic rooms, several courses. This charging for eyes with myopia gives a very good effect.
• The use of medicinal substances that affect accommodation. Here, cycloplegics are used, for example, "Atropine." It completely blocks the accommodation, thereby giving the ciliary muscle the necessary relief.
• Physiotherapeutic effects. They are also carried out in the walls of medical institutions, in which there are therapeutic lasers, electrostimulators, etc.
• Charging for the eyes by the method of U.G. Bates or its modifications. Such exercises, which can be carried out at home, train all the muscles of the organ of vision: both extraocular and intraocular. The simplest exercise is an object on the glass. The principle of it is as follows: a circle of paper is attached to the window glass at eye level, become 1 m from it and fix it with a look. Then look at the most distant object behind the glass. Then again they "turn" the view on the object on the glass. And so do several times until the removed object becomes clearer. This exercise should be done every day.
• Special computer programs. They relax the muscular apparatus of the eye and prevent myopia from developing.
