Learn how to keep your eyesight, useful tips and exercises for the eyes
The eyes are an important and vulnerable organ. During human life, the load on the eyes increases. If the eyes are not given due attention, then over time, vision becomes worse, characteristic diseases appear.
How to maintain vision for many years? There are eight rules, adhering to which, you can protect your eyes from the aggressive effects of external factors. This will help maintain eye health and prevent the development of characteristic diseases.
Rules for maintaining vision:
- Sleep well. Regular lack of sleep has a bad effect on the state of the optic nerve, as a result of which the quality of vision is noticeably reduced.
- Rest your eyes during an active day. While reading, watching TV, working at a computer, you need to pause (10-15 minutes). It is advisable to devote one or two such pauses to special exercises for the eyes.
- Watching TV and reading books is important in a well-lit room. The habit of watching TV in the dark is detrimental to eye health.
- Read in correct position. It is strictly forbidden to read books while driving (in transport, while walking). You need to read while sitting, you should not get used to reading lying down.
- Do not squint. This habit not only spoils the appearance, but also negatively affects the eyes.
- Eat foods rich in vitamins A, E, C.
- Rest more often, walk in the fresh air.
- Visit an ophthalmologist regularly for preventive examinations.
How to keep a child's eyesight?
WHO statistics show that almost every fourth student has vision problems. But the health of the eyes must be protected from childhood. Missing this moment at a young age, in the future, you can face extremely serious eye diseases that can lead to partial loss of vision or blindness.
What should caring parents pay attention to in order to prevent the development of dangerous vision problems in children?
- Watching TV, sitting at a computer or tablet for children should be dosed. Kids aged 2-3 years are recommended to watch cartoons no more than 15-20 minutes a day. Children aged 4 to 7 years should spend time watching TV, tablet, computer no more than 30-40 minutes a day. Schoolchildren over the age of 7 are recommended to spend no more than 1.5-3 hours on such eye loads, always with breaks.
- Training loads involving reading, writing, drawing and other disciplines that require the load of the visual organ must be combined with active physical exercises (preferably in the fresh air).
- The child's diet must include the entire complex of useful substances. A particularly important product for vision is carrots. It is advisable to include this vegetable in the child's diet in the amount recommended for baby food.
- Parents should be attentive to any child's complaints about eye health. At the slightest suspicion of visual impairment or the development of other eye diseases, you should consult an ophthalmologist. All children, without exception, are recommended to undergo a preventive examination by an eye doctor once a year.
Influence of computer and TV on eye health
Modern man is overloaded with exposure to various devices.
We work at a computer, search for information and communicate through phones, video communicators, play consoles and other devices, watch TV before going to bed, and scroll through the news on a tablet in the morning. It does not matter whether a person is working or resting, his eyes are always in tension. Such loads are detrimental to vision. This must be taken into account. It is desirable to reduce the frequency and intensity of such loads. To preserve vision, it is important to follow simple rules for interacting with a computer, TV, book:
- The time of continuous "communication" with the TV or computer cannot be longer than one hour. You need to take a short break. It is better to refuse further load if sitting at the monitor is not related to work.
- The distance from the eyes to the screen measuring 32-46 inches diagonally must be at least 3-3.3 m. The distance from the monitor to the eyes can be at least 40-70 cm. The distance from the book to the eyes must not be less than 30 -40 cm. You need to read in the right light - the overhead light should be turned on in the room.
- If you feel tired, dry, sore eyes while working at a computer, you must definitely rest. In case of fatigue of the organ of vision, it is necessary to relieve tension with the help of special gymnastics.
Exercises for maintaining eyesight
In order to prevent the load on the organ of vision from becoming fatal, it is worth removing fatigue from the eyes with the help of simple exercises:
"Palming"
The simplest and most effective exercise. It is necessary to rub the palm on the palm until the tissues warm and attach both hands to the eyes crosswise. The fingers should join each other in the area of the "third" eye, the eyelids should be covered. In this position, it is necessary to spend several (2-5) minutes until a feeling of tension is felt.
"Blind Man's Bluffs"
This exercise perfectly helps to relax the muscles of the visual organ and remove excess tension from the eye muscles, and also promotes blood flow to this area. It is necessary to close your eyes tightly 3-5 times, then relax.
Up and Down
An excellent exercise for training the eye (oblique and transverse) muscles. The head needs to be fixed motionless, and the eyes should first be gently raised up, imagining how they go beyond the base of the back of the head, then slowly move down, mentally taking them behind the chin. Such gymnastics must be done 3-4 times.
Infinity
This exercise trains the muscles of the organ of vision and eliminates unnecessary tension. The head must be kept still, and the eyes should smoothly draw a horizontal eight. This must be done 6 times, 3 times in one direction and the same number of times in the opposite direction.
When performing any exercise, it is important to remember: no pain and discomfort! If discomfort is felt during gymnastics, it is better to stop performing movements. If you experience discomfort or pain, you should consult your doctor.

Event progress
- Guys, today we will talk with you on one very necessary and important topic, you will find out what exactly the conversation will be about if you guess the riddle:
Two windows at night
Close themselves
And with the sunrise
They open themselves. (Eyes)
Why do you think people need eyes? (children's answers: to see everything around, to read, watch TV, play on the computer, etc.)
- Well done, you said everything correctly, in order to do what you listed, a person needs vision, which means eyes. Listen to a poem called "What are eyes for?"
Let's figure it out together, children,
What are the eyes for?
And why do we all have
Does the face have a pair of eyes?

Our Yegor will be a tanker,
And Philip is a parachutist.
But for this, friends,
In addition to knowledge and skills
We need vision!
You will see everything in the world:
How to fly on a rocket
How many stars in the world
How is the long bridge
Who lives at the bottom of the sea
How the school house was built.
How iron is mined
How microbes are studied
How America was discovered
How people lived on the ice
About animals and birds
And about bees-masters.
And to read a book
You need to have eyesight.
If you want to go to the cinema -
You also need vision
Yes, and in the circus performance
You can't see without seeing.
So each of us
Need a pair of keen eyes!
- Guys, you, of course, know that in order to maintain good eyesight, it must be protected. And what measures should be taken for this? (children's answers: do not watch TV for a long time, do not read books close, do not play a lot on the computer, etc.) That's right. And now I bring to your attention another poem, which is called
"About the yard."
The two girls got up early.
They played with sand in the yard:
They began to build a town
Cook a pie together.
Tired of playing
They began to throw sand up,
But the wind blew
And brought sand into his eyes.
Rubbing the girls eyes.
Tears ran into them
Eyelids swollen, reddened,
Barely opened.
In a word, a very scary sight.
The doctor said - conjunctivitis.
And appointed washing,
Drops, ointments, cauterization.
Gotta be careful
To keep your eyes clean.
– And it’s also very useful to do exercises for the eyes, which will help relieve fatigue and improve blood circulation, which I now suggest you do (children do gymnastics using the Tube Labyrinth simulator).
You've done a good job, now it's time to rest. Now let's play the game "Collect pasta with tweezers." Everything you need is on the tables, while the music is playing, you collect pasta, as soon as it ends, stop the game. The winner is the one who filled the container more (children go out at will and compete in speed and dexterity. The game is played several times).
- I know that all children like to solve riddles. Let me remind you that our topic today is eyes and vision. Listen carefully.
Two little nests
Each one has a bird
In a bird - on the testicle,
On each testicle
Black speck ... (Eyes)
Two friends live
They look in two circles ... (Eyes and glasses)
Reeds grow around the lake. (Eyes and eyelashes)
They sit on the nose
They look at everyone through two glasses,
The temples are hidden behind the ears,
I know we see better in them.
And behind the glass pupils,
On the nose sit (Glasses).
The day is over, quiet
You lay down, closed them
And yawned lightly
And quietly fell asleep ... (Eyes)
Wheels hang on the nose,
To see beyond the nose (Glasses).
- The next game is called "Wave", the meaning of which is to move the boat from the bottom up and not drop the balls (the children go out and complete the task if they wish).
- Guys, you listened to poems, guessed riddles, and now the children will tell you what proverbs and sayings they know that deal with eyes.
- The eyes are afraid, but the hands are doing.
- Your eye is a diamond; alien - glass.
- There are no eyes on the back of the head.
- One eye, but a vigilant one, you don't need even forty.
- Only two eyes, and those behind the nose.
“The eyes are like bowls, but they don’t see a crumb.
- In the crooked eye, everything is crooked.
- Wet eyes.
- The eyes are the mirror of the soul.
- The other eye sees more.
- Out of sight, out of mind.
- The eye does not see, the soul does not hurt.
- The eyes are agile, but the hands are clumsy.
- If you squint with your eye, you will fall into the pit.
The eye is small, but it sees far.
- To mow with an eye - to please into a hole.
- And now the next task, which is called "Labyrinth". You need to help the dog, cat, mouse and bee find their way to food - bone, milk, cheese and flower nectar.
- Guys, let's remember what we talked about today (children's answers: about the eyes, about what rules must be followed so as not to harm vision, etc.)
