Yoga of Perfect Sight

Suggestions

1) Imagine Things are Moving All the Time

When riding in a railroad train, when one looks out of the window, telegraph poles and other objects, although they are stationary, appear to be moving. To stop the movement is impossible, and the effort to do so may be very uncomfortable. The greater the effort, the greater the discomfort, and is the cause of heart sickness, headache and nausea. It can be demonstrated that any movement of the head and eyes produces an apparent movement of stationary objects.

2) Blink Often

By blinking is meant to make short and rapid movements of the eyelids. When done properly, things are seen continuously and they always move with a quick jump in various directions. Regarding stationary objects without blinking is an effort, a strain which always lowers the vision.

3) Read The Snellen Test Card Daily

School children and others are often cured of imperfect sight by reading a familiar card at ten or fifteen feet distance, first with both eyes and then with each eye separately. It is the only method practised which prevents myopia in school children.

4) Fine Print

Read fine print at six inches or nine inches when possible every night and morning. If not possible, do the best you can. Just regarding the white spaces between the lines of fine print without reading the letters is a benefit.

5) Palming

Palm for five minutes several times a day.
