   Ayurvedic Tips >> Taking Care of Eyes
    
    An Important Aspect of Health:

    If you were asked, "Do you take care of your eyes once a week or at least once a month?", the most common     reply would probably be in the negative. The eyes are considered to tbe the most important organ in ourt body     and yet, people neglect to care for them.
    
    Although we use our eyes everyday, we rarely pay attention until there is some serious problem. Ayurveda     advises to take care of health while in a healthy state. You can maintain perfect eyesight for most part of your life     by following some simple remedies.
    Every morning after waking up, fill your mouth with water, close the eyes and sprinkle water on them about 10-15     times. Be sure, as Ayurveda advises, to wake up before sunrise. Do not use hot water to wash the eyes.

   Do not wash the eyes or face when the body is sweating, especially after hard physical exercise or after being     exposed to heat and sun.

    Do not stare continuously, specially while looking at long distance objects. Blinking or giving rest to the eyes is     good. Do not look at the objects in bright sunlight for a long time. Avoid reading, writing or working with eyes in     improper light, or when the light is not sufficient. Take a break and give rest to the eyes if you feel heaviness or     tiredness in the eyes.

 
 


    Staying up late in the night and sleeping after sunrise is harmful for the eyes.     In case of staying up late, drink a cup of water after each hour or half hour.

    Protect your eyes from dust, smoke, strong sunlight and strong wind. Avoid     staying long in such conditions. In case you have to stay, blink often and     massage the closed eyes gently with your palms.

      
    Try to maintain regular and clean bowel movements. Constipation weakens the eyesight. In addition; too much     anxiety, mental stress, grief, anger and worry are harmful for the eyes.

    Regular eye exercise maintains perfect eyesight. One simple method of exercise is moving the eyeball - right     and left; upwards and downwards and rotating it in the clockwise and anti-clockwise directions.

    Another simple way of protecting of eyes is through 'palming'. Rub the palms of both hands for about 30     seconds, close the eyes and gently place the warm palms over the eyes.

    Eating cabbage and carrots is very beneficial for the eyes. These should be eaten raw. It is all right to drink     cabbage and carrot juice mixed together or separately.

    If Triphala (an Ayurvedic preparation) is available, you can wash the eyes with 'Triphala water'. Put a teaspoonful     of Triphala powder in a glass of water, and let it stay overnight. Strain the water and wash the eyes with it.

    Putting one drop of honey in each eye once a week is also beneficial to the eyes. It causes a bit of irritation, but     cleans the eyes.
    Try these remedies and keep your eyes healthy and beautiful. These remedies can be used by everyone,     including those having weak eyesight. Through these methods, one can even improve one's weak eyesight and     maybe even give up the use of spectacles forever.
