A manual on the natural care of the eye with exercises to improve eyesight & treat various eye disorders. Also includes letters by Sri Aurobindo on yogic vision
This book, which is a comprehensive manual on the natural care of the eye, starts from the concept that eyesight is intricately connected to the mind and explains how good habits of eye care and mental relaxation can keep the eyes rested and refreshed. It then suggests simple but effective exercises to improve eyesight and treat various eye disorders. There are also chapters on the discoveries of Dr W. H. Bates and the physiology of the eye, as well as case histories, question-and-answer sections, and some letters by Sri Aurobindo on eyesight and yogic vision.
When you are called for an eye examination, remember three points:
To cover one eye with the palm and not with the fingers. The fingers cause pressure on the eyeball, and consequently the sight becomes defective. You are unable to read the smaller letters with that covered eye.
To keep the chin a little raised, and the lids down.
To blink gently on each letter.
Many students are disqualified from services and examinations due to defective eyesight. A good number of such men have passed the medical test after undergoing a course of treatment.
