A Vision-Breakthrough: eye exercises improve DO improve the elderly’s vision – sometimes in already a few days!
For decades now, natural health promoters claim and have testimonies) that you could actually improve your vision (and sometimes even be able to get rid of your glasses by exercising your eyes to see better. There is mainstream scientific evidence to back up the idea that you can have better sight through eye exercises. Accoarding to a Natural Magazine; Research funded by a $3.5 million grant from the National Institute on Aging has just shown that the elderly can quickly improve their vision with perceptual training.
The study, “Perceptual learning, aging, and improved visual performance in early stages of visual processing,” was published in the online November issue of the Journal of Vision. According to the research team from the University of California, Riverside (UCR) and Boston University, the ability of elders to improve their sight so quickly has a host of important implications for the health and mobility of older people.
Changes in vision — including contrast sensitivity, spatial vision, orientation, depth perception, dark adaptation, visual acuity, and motion perception — have long been associated with aging. However, the new study shows for the first that specific eye exercises can improve vision among the elderly in the earliest levels of visual processing.
