All for beautiful eyes
Saturday, June 27th, 2009
It is said that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, true, but you need good eyes to appreciate the beauty as well! Good eye make up fashionistas sure know, but what about taking care of those pair of eyes?
Here are some of the ways all you guys should do to take care of your eyes:
Splash water in your eyes atleast three to five times a day – This is needed especially when you have long hours of work and are sitting in front of the computer. Take regular breaks from it and try this exercise. Hold a finger a few centimeters in front of your face; focus on the finger as you slowly move it away, focus on something far in the distance and then bring back on the finger; slowly bring the finger back towards your face. Now shift your focus to something farther than eight feel away and hold your eyes there for a few seconds. Repeat this exercise three times in a day.
Exercise every single day. Of course it builds muscle and gets you noticed but it also helps to relieve intraocular hypertension. Also, drink plenty of water. If you don’t, the body will try to retain all the water reserves that it has making your eyes look swollen. If your under eye area is puffy, get quick relief by placing chilled tea bags or cotton dabbed in ice cold milk. This reduces inflammation and puffiness. Eat lots of carrots, papaya, apricots, mangoes and spinach as these tend to be good for the eyes. Also, mix cardamom seeds with one teaspoon honey and chew it in the morning. This will strengthen your vision. Also, try yoga. Some of the asanas improve eye vision to a great extent
