The reason behind celebrating this day is to prevent blindness and get early diagnosis of eye related diseases.

About 285 million people in the world suffer from low vision and blindness, of which 39 million are facing total blindness. World Sight Day serves as a powerful reminder that healthy vision is a priceless gift that should never be taken for granted. In our increasingly digital world, screens and devices dominate our daily lives. It seeks to highlight the urgent need for accessible and quality eye health care. There are many simple exercises to improve eyesight and can be done anytime, anywhere.

Palming

Palming involves relaxing the muscles around the eyes to reduce stress and fatigue. Rub your hands together to warm them and then close your eyes and place the palms of both hands on the cheekbones. Place your hands over your eyes and breathe deeply for 3-5 minutes.

Blink

Spending too much time with screens and digital devices slows down the blink rate and causes dryness. Blinking periodically keeps the eyes moist. This involves closing the eyes, holding them for 2-3 seconds and then opening them.

To prevent stress caused by digital equipment look at an object about 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes of exposure. Using this method along with the method mentioned earlier can help a lot in reducing eye fatigue.

Roll the eyes

Moving the eyes slowly from one direction to the other and then back also helps greatly in reducing tension and pain in the eye area. This exercise helps in reducing eye strain but if you are struggling with eye related problems then you should get regular eye check up and consult a doctor.
