Better vision without glasses today is a very realistic and possible scenario. However, if you were to ask if better vision without glasses is possible with eye exercises alone, your doctor will not be so enthusiastic in his or her response.
Today, technology in terms of both machines and surgical techniques has advanced so much that almost anyone with a refractive error and no significant diseases of ocular structure and function can lead a life entirely spectacle-free.
The best option for each patient, however, requires a comprehensive eye examination by a skilled eye care professional. Your ophthalmologist will perform specific tests before recommending the best possible solution for your visual needs, which will be the most effective and the safest option for you.
Each one of these options has been discussed in greater detail individually to help you have an informed conversation with your eye doctor. The branches of Eye7 Chaudhary Eye Centre are well equipped to take care of all your visual needs, including those about orthoptic exercises, which are essential for errors of fusion and binocularity. In case you want freedom from glasses, the doctors will be happy to discuss all treatment options and guide you to the best possible medical or surgical recourse.
We are fully functional now! What causes refractive errors? Myopia or farsightedness: When your eyeball is too long, light rays focus at a point before the retina, meaning your near vision remains blurred more in comparison to distance.
This is called farsightedness and is corrected using a system of convex or plus lenses. Hypermetropia or nearsightedness: When the eyeball is too short, you are unable to focus on near objects because light rays entering your eye, focus behind the retina, the light-sensitive portion of the eye. This is called nearsightedness and can be corrected using a system of concave or minus lenses.
Astigmatism: When the two meridians of the cornea or lens both of which constitute the major refractive power of the eye do not focus at the same point, the rays of light entering your eye focus at different points. This results in a visual blur and is corrected using a system of cylindrical lenses, which are denoted with a plus or minus power and an axis ranging from 0 to degrees. Presbyopia: The natural lens of the eye has a remarkable ability to focus on both near and distant objects by changing its shape or curvature.
Over time, usually after the age of forty years, the lens loses its ability to change its shape due to loss of elasticity, and can no longer accommodate focusing at different distances. It results in a visual blur for near vision, typically resulting in the need for near vision glasses around the age of forty. It is called presbyopia and is treated using a system of plus lenses, like hypermetropia, even though the reason for the visual blur is entirely different for both the errors of refraction.
What is the remedy for refractive errors? Change the refractive power of the eye by adding lenses as required. This may be done by using glasses, contact lenses, implantable contact lenses or even refractive lens exchange. This means that the light entering the eye is focused on the retina correctly, resulting in perfect vision. The first two modalities are for temporary vision correction, while the latter two surgical modalities are a definitive solution.
Each of these modalities are discussed in greater detail in their respective categories. Change the refractive power of the cornea of the eye. This may be done by LASIK, or laser surgery, which changes the shape of the cornea surgically with high precision to ensure that light rays fall sharply on the retina resulting in correct Change the shape and length of the eyeball. Earlier in the s some attempts were made to alter the length of the eyeball, especially for myopia, shortening of the eye was attempted but did not meet with clinical success.
These attempts are therefore not relevant clinically in the current era of modern refractive surgeries. Can eye exercises achieve what lenses and surgery can?
Can exercising your eyes change the shape of your eyeball, by making it longer or shorter, or changing the dimension of one of the axes of the eyeball sphere as needed for astigmatism? Can eye exercises change shape and power of your cornea, and result in light being focused precisely on the retina? In case of astigmatism, can the exercises reshape the irregular surface f the eye resulting in precise focusing of light on the retina?
