By 2050 half the world’s population is going to be myopic. Myopia is one type of eye power. Many are aware that post covid a huge number of children got glasses or the number increased for those who were already wearing glasses. It’s thus important to understand the types of eye power and how to take care of your eyes.
Eyeglasses are optical aids to enable us to see clearly. The lenses have a number to them depending on our eye condition. There are 3 types of eye power:
Usually, refractive errors or eye powers are managed through the following approaches:
Everyone wants to remove their eye number naturally and thus this is a very common question. There are a few things one can do to try and remove their eye numbers, however, before we list out natural ways of reducing eye numbers one must understand that the veracity of these statements has never held up to scientific scrutiny. At the same time, however, the medical fraternity also agrees that these exercises do not harm your eyes. It is therefore up to you to give these exercises a try, with a healthy dose of skepticism, to see if they work.
These exercises are not part of the specific ocularist-supervised programs to correct particular eyesight issues (like convergence insufficiency) and other binocular visual skills. These exercises claim to be able to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatisms, which are errors stemming from altered eye anatomy or structure.
There are several commercially available exercise programs online, which are said to be devised by experts in this field. Most of them are similar and come with a disclaimer that the results may vary from person to person, and the duration of exercise for optimal results is also not specified. None of them offer any guaranteed results. Following are some exercises or practices that have been followed for ages and are known to help in eyecare.
The technique of covering both eyes gently with your palms is called palming. Eye yoga also talks about palming. It helps by relaxing the eyes and also resulting in the redistribution of tears on the eye surface. Experts recommend that you must take a deep breath and relax your neck muscles, closing your eyes. Make sure your forearms and elbows are well supported, and then close your eyes. Gently cup your eyes in the hollow of your palms for about a minute, breathing normally. Experts recommend repeating this exercise, several times a day for best results.
Blinking is a reflex function but there is no conclusive evidence that it helps improve your eyesight. However, with our current use of gadgets, conscious blinking is a good idea since our blink rate reduces significantly when sitting in front of computers, televisions or smartphones. This happens because we tend to stare at the screens when looking at them. Blinking redistributes the tear film and makes the eyes lubricated, it also provides the eyes with some much-needed rest, therefore decreasing fatigue and strain.
It is claimed that it’s important to repeat the exercise many times throughout the day to achieve the best results.
Imagine a large “8” figure in front of you, about six feet away, and you must revolve your eyes to trace its shape slowly in a clockwise direction. This process must be repeated for three to five minutes. After this, you must trace the shape of “8” in the anti-clockwise direction for the same duration.
This must be done several times during the day for the best results.
Convergence exercises are to strengthen your near vision muscles, also known as ciliary muscles, and also to help delay presbyopia by exercising the muscles responsible for focusing or accommodation. Presbyopia is needed to wear reading glasses after the age of 42 years of age. Usually, these exercises are done for a condition called convergence insufficiency.
Focus on a pencil tip held an arm’s length away. Focus on something far away to relax your eyes. Repeat this cycle for two minutes. Slowly bring the pencil tip closer until it is about 3 inches away from your face or the tip becomes blurred. Don’t take your eyes off the pencil tip. As we bring the pencil tip closer the tip will get blurred. Try to focus on it till it becomes clear again. You may also start seeing two tips. Again, focus on the tip and try to make it one. Move the pencil back to its original position with your arm stretched out as much as possible. Repeat this for at least ten minutes, and several times a day. It is possible that you feel a slight eye strain while doing these exercises.
Moving the eyes from side to side also is said to relax the eyes and improve vision. For this, after sitting in a relaxed position, you must shift your eyes to the right, looking at something at least six feet away. After holding your gaze for a few seconds, move your eyes to the other extreme. You must do this for three to five minutes, and then reverse the order of your gaze, starting first from a left-extreme gaze and moving to the right, for another three to five minutes. This also must be performed repeatedly.
Eye power is present because of the anatomical shape of the eye. It is highly unlikely that home remedies (apart from exercises) will change or reverse the anatomical shape of the eye. It is however proven that there are various vitamins and minerals that will help different aspects of eye health. In fact, not only for the eye, these vitamins and minerals help with general well-being and also help in various body functions thus improving the overall quality of life.
Vitamins A, C, and E, as well as the mineral zinc, contain antioxidants that can help prevent Age-related macular degeneration. It’s a condition in which the macula — the part of the eye that controls central vision — deteriorates.
Food sources for these important nutrients include a variety of colourful vegetables and fruits, such as:
2. A few other nutrients are also keys to improving eyesight. Among them are lutein and zeaxanthin, which are carotenoids found in the retina. You can also find them in leafy green vegetables, broccoli, zucchini, and eggs.
3. Lutein and zeaxanthin can also be taken in supplement form. These carotenoids help protect the macula by improving pigment density in that part of the eye and absorbing ultraviolet and blue light.
4. If you are feeling that your eye muscles are weakening, you should try out this home remedy – Make green leafy vegetables such as kale, spinach, etc., a part of your daily diet. These vegetables are rich in lutein and zeaxanthin – the healthy antioxidants that prevent free radicals in the eyes.
5. There is an age-old Ayurvedic remedy that is instrumental in improving eyesight. All you need is a mixture of 7 almonds, 5-gram fennel seeds, and 5-gram mishri that are crushed into a powder. You should have one teaspoon of this powder every day with cold milk at night. Regular consumption of this powder helps in improving eyesight, thereby reducing the power of your spectacles.6. Omega 3 fatty acids are another group of nutrients which help with the lubrication of the front surface of the eye and thus prevent dry eyes.
Very recently, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved the first eye drop designed to enhance age-related near vision. Vuity is a solution that can be applied to improve vision throughout the day, potentially eliminating the need for reading glasses wherever you go. The drops are most effective for people aged 40 to 55, who often experience difficulty in seeing clearly while performing daily tasks, such as reading from your phone or computer screen.
It is recommended to use one drop to each eye daily. The drops begin working 15 minutes after application, and their effects last for approximately six hours. Vuity is formulated using a well-known drug called pilocarpine, which is also used in glaucoma treatment. Researchers utilized technology to enable the eye drop to quickly adapt to the pH of the tear film. Vuity reduces pupil size, leading to an improvement in near- and intermediate vision, while distance vision remains unaffected.
This development is quite recent. Because this drug has been previously used for other eye conditions, we are familiar with its side effects. It might cause some eye strain or a sensation of heaviness, but nothing serious or long-lasting.
Eye yoga is also practiced claiming to reduce eye number. Most of the eye exercises described above are also practiced in yoga. As explained earlier there is no scientific evidence to suggest that these exercises are successful. On a practical note when we see patients who are undergoing eye yoga exercises to reduce their eye number, we do not see any reduction.
Yoga in general focuses on relaxation techniques and breathing. These rituals are proven beyond doubt to benefit the individual’s well-being. In fact, one may argue that in today’s world yoga, breathing and meditation is the need of the hour. So yes, there is surely a feel-good factor when people practice yoga or meditation.
Eye Solutions sees a significant number of pediatric patients. Some of our parents are not happy that their children have glasses and start eye yoga with the hope that eye numbers will reduce. Out of all these parents, come visit us again to confirm if the eye number has reduced. We have not seen a single child whose eye number has reduced because of eye yoga. However, we also have not seen a single child who has been harmed by eye yoga in any way.
High blood sugar in diabetics is known to change eye power. Because the eye power can change again because of varying blood sugar levels it becomes impractical to keep making glasses of the latest eye power.
Diabetes also causes diabetic retinopathy in the eye which is an irreversible blinding disease of the eye. It thus becomes important to keep your blood sugar levels under strict control.
LASIK eye surgery is a procedure in which a laser reshapes the front surface of the cornea. This reshaping helps the person to see clearly without glasses. There are a few types of LASIK eye surgery.
LASIK uses cutting-edge technology and this makes the procedure very safe. The procedure is very quick and the most popular type of LASIK in which a flap is created hardly causes any discomfort to the patient.
Contact top eye specialists At Eye Solutions, we recommend patients to do some eye exercises for eye conditions related to binocular vision. We have not found enough evidence to suggest to patients exercises to reduce their eye number. For those who are very keen to get rid of glasses, we suggest LASIK eye surgery. This procedure gets rid of glasses very quickly.
1. Is it possible to reduce eye number fast?
While we all wish for that, there is really no way to reduce your eye number naturally or by performing eye exercises. LASIK eye surgery would help you get rid of your number completely very fast and that is something that you can consider if you are keen to be glass-free.
2. How can I get a 20/20 vision?
You can get 20/20 vision by wearing glasses or contact lenses or by getting LASIK done if you want 20/20 vision and not wear glasses. The chances of your number completely going away only by performing exercises is very slim.
3. How to reduce eyeglasses number?
There is no evidence in the scientific world that eye specs number can be reduced. Exercises or eye yoga have not been shown to really reduce eye power. At the same time, ophthalmologists agree that they don’t harm the eyes in any way. One is most welcome to try these exercises and hope for the best.
4. Can we remove the specs permanently?
Yes, you can. Unfortunately, this may not be possible with eye exercises alone. You may have to undergo a procedure called LASIK eye surgery which would get rid of your specs.
5. Can Eye Exercises Achieve What Lenses and Surgery Can?
Unfortunately No. Eye exercises may reduce eye strain in certain conditions but one cannot get rid of wearing glasses just be eye exercises. There are various claims by certian eye yoga groups of getting rid of your eye numbers. However, in our practice when we see patients who have gone to these centres and come back to us, we find the same number.
6. Can Cylindrical Power be Corrected Naturally?
Unfortunately No. Cylindrical number or Astigmatism cannot be corrected naturally. One may be able to avoid glasses alltogether for small numbers but will require wearing glasses or contact lenses to see clearly. Of course Lasik can be performed to get rid of cylindrical number.
7. How to Cure 0.5 Eye Power?
0.5 Eye power is a very very small eye power. Most likely one will be quite comfortable not wearing this eye power and still being able to see everything clearly.
So before 42 years of age if one has a 0.5D eye power then wearing glasses can be avoided. On the other hand if one has a small reading number after the age of 42 years then one may have to wear glasses to see small print.
Our opinion is do not try and correct a small number like 0.5D.
8. Can 2.5 Eyesight be Improved?
Yes, if someone has an eye power of 2.5D then this number can be improved by a few methods.
1) One can wear glasses to see clearly
2) One can wear contact lenses
3) Ortho K Lenses – lens that is worn at night and removed in the day. The person will be able to see clearly without glasses or lenses for the whole of the next day and then once again will wear lenses at night.
4) Lasik – Laser surgery to get rid of glasses.
9. How to Stop Increasing Eye Power?
Most of the time Eye Power increases in people below 19-20 years of age. This increase is eye power is usually associated with Myopia.
Here are 4 things you can do to reduce the risk of progression
1) Reduce screen time
2) Increase outdoor activity
3) Use diluted Atropine eye drops
4) Use Myopia control Lenses

HI
i currently have:
+3.6 +4
can laser eye surgery correct this?
Yes, sir, Laser surgery can correct this eye power, We would however have to examine you once to check your eye power.
Usually yes, it will correct this power
My wife after almost 17years’ of Conventional Surgery for NA Glaucoma & Cataracts,as her RE having Over filtration remained with IOP 6/8mmhg-no eye drops.
Recently she posed difficulty in Reading/Focusing.Her Eye power is R:+0.50 +2.00 170 degree L:- -1.00 75 degree Add:2.50 in both Specs power.
She had first time eye power changed is noticed.She is now comfortable with Near-Vision Specs.
Kindly let me know,whether Cyl.power will increase further as We would like to go for Progrssive lenses-with above correction.
Please advise.
usually cylindrical power does not change with age. However, because she has undergone glaucoma surgery there is always a small chance that the cylindrical power may change after a year or two.
Cylindrical power will usually not increase.
Hi sir Lasik eye surgery will affect in future I mean after 20 or 30 years .Any side effects in this surgery
Lasik has now been there for quite a few years. We have also performed cataract surgeries for patients who have undergone lasik many years ago. So no specific long term side effects.
My age is 15 and my eye power is -2 in both side. Can I reduce eye power naturally or by using any eye drop .
Hi ansh,
No you cannot reduce your eyepower naturally. At 15 we dont expect the eye power to increase too much.
Hi sir I’m 43 I hav my both distant and near power
Can it be possible for surgery to reduce any one power
Yes lasik will get rid of your distance power and you will only have reading glasses. However, you will not need distance glasses for maybe 8-10 years and after that you will need distance glasses again.
i am 13 and I have +2.5 and +3.5 what should i do to remove the number of eyes
For now do nothing. You can wear contact lenses. WHen you are 18 you can undergo lasik
hi.. I’m 20 year old and my eye sight number is -15 both eye.. what should i do for reducing this number.. and some doctors said i have Keratokones disease. is i go for lasik surgery?
If you have keratoconus then please confirm first if you have that disease or no. Its very very important. You can read more about keratoconus here. https://www.eyesolutions.in/cornea/keratoconus/
If you do have this then you will need what is known as C3R. Once that is done you can get a ICL done to get rid of your eye power.
You can read about ICL here https://www.eyesolutions.in/specs-removal/icl-surgery-implantable-lens-for-specs-removal/
I’m diabetic patients and having -5 in both eyes.
Is laser surgery is good for me.

If your sugar is under control then yes you can undergo laser surgery.
hello sir,my son is 6 years old.doctor told his cylinderical power increased he has -1.75 in both eyes so suggested to wear specs.is it necessary to wear him specs?we are much worried he is little boy.is there any possibility to reduce his power?is there any foods or exercises to rectify this problem?
Yes, it is necessary to wear glasses. This number usually does not change so there is no need to worry.
sir, my 7 years old son has Right SPH -2. 50, CYL+1.25, AXIS 110 / Left SPH -2.00, CYL +1.50, AXIS 70 can any chances to improve his eyesight.
You mean you would like the number to go away? You can undergo laser or lasik but that will be done when he is 20 years old and not before that.
I am 18 and my eye no. has increased this year from -4.5 to -5.5 and -5.50 to -6.0 should I be worried about losing my eyesight in upcoming years
Not at all, All you need to do is get a yearly retina check up.
Hi Sir
I am Gajendra Yadav From Alwar Rajasthan.
My eye number is -5 of both eye. I am 20 year old. I am using spectacle last 7 year but number increases per year.
What is the solution for save my eye.
I am able to surgery or not.
At 20 years usually the power stops increasing. You might be able to undergo laser or lasik to get rid of your power. There is however a possibility that it may not be possible. We will only know after we examine you. If you cannot undergo lasik then you can undergo a procedure called ICL. You can read more about it here…https://www.eyesolutions.in/specs-removal/icl-surgery-implantable-lens-for-specs-removal/
Hello Dr. Garg, my 6 year old son has myopia. he has been using -4 and 5 since last year. This year the power has increased to -5.75 and -6.00. What can we do to help him improve his eyesight and get rid of glasses or at least that his eyesight will not worsen? Kindly give us your suggestion.
hi, apologies for the late reply. You can only do 4 things
1. reduce screen time
2. increase outdoor activity
3. Use certain eye drops once at night every night till he is 15-16 years old
4. Use myopia control lenses in his spectacles instead of the regular lenses.
My right eye is -1.25 spherical and left eye is-1.00 spherical,-.75 CYL and 180 degree axis . I have amblyopia in left eye and turning outward . Now i am 22 years old .what should i do
MYRIGHT EYE IS -1.25 SPHERICAL AND THE LEFT EYE IS -1.00 SPHERICAL ,-.75 CYLINDRICAL AND AXIS IS 180 DEGREE AND I HAVE AMBYLOPIA. THEN WHAT SHOULD I DO ?MY LEFT EYE BECOME MOVING OUTWARD . I AM 22 YEARS OLD
Dear Satyam,
the best treatment would be a step wise treatment
1) First you have to do Revital therapy to improve the amblyopia
2) Surgery for squint so that the squint is not visible anymore.
Please call us on 9820239958 and speak to zulfikar, prathmesh or laxmi and understand more about revital therapy
I have -6 in myopia , what can I do to atleast reduce to a safer number than this ?
You cannot do anything to reduce the number. After 19 years of age you can undergo lasik which will get rid of your glasses.
can i do candle gazing to remove my specs i cant see distant objects
You can surely try but we dont think it will help.
My son is 7 yrs old now he has eyesight of -3 for both the eyes. how can we reduce the eyesight and be normal without the usage of specs in the long run.
There is no way to redcue the number. Infact it is important we try and reduce the risk of progression. Of course he can get lasik done after 19 years of age.
I’m 18 . I have -0.25 and -0.25 . is I also need to wear glasses
Your numbers are very small and you can avoid glasses.
i currently have (-6.5 right),(-2.0 left) what we need to do

Hi my name is wahaj Ashrafi I have a eye power of 3.75 and farsighted I was thinking of buying the Vuity eye drop will it benefit . I also do eye exercises but never get an improvement in my eyes and see blur all the time without glasses so what will help me .?
These drops are not widely used as yet and one cannot be sure of how useful they are. Personally i do not think they will help you see clearly without glasses.
Hello sir! I’m waghmare shweta.. my eye number is -3 right now… what should I do to reduce it as soon as possible… because of this I have continuous headache also!

https://www.eyesolutions.in/specs-removal/icl-surgery-implantable-lens-for-specs-removal/
Sir, I recently had an eye checkup at Lenskart and found that I had -0.75 spherical power and -1.5 spherical power in right eye and in both eyes 33 pd. How can it can be rectified.
You have a small number and the only way to get rid of glasses is to undergo lasik after 19 years of age.
Hi Doctor ,
My daughter is 3years 10 months old and she has cylindrical power of 4.77. Does that increase by age and also, she has cornea thickness of 494 which is lower than the normal range. of 540. I sthat anything to be worried.
Please advise what has to be done. Very much worried with regard to her age.
sometimes children can have a high cylindrival number. All you need to do is make her wear the correct glasses and get regular check ups with topographies of the cornea to make sure everything is fine.
Dear Dr. Garg, recently I have undergone combined cataract and Glaucoma surgery in my left eye which had only central vision left, about 25%.
After 2 days of surgery IOP was 3 to 4 only, which increased to 5 after 1.5 month and not increasing. In the mean while big choroidal also developed and almost resolved after 1.5 month. But my vision is not improved much. My distant vision was perfect upto 1 week after surgery, then it deteriorated quickly with pixalation and blurred vision. My operating doctor told that the vision will improve in a month. What do you think sir? Pinhole vision of both eyes are 6/24.
Now when I made glasses, my left eye vision is cyl +3, 80°, R-eye vision – 4.5, cyl – 1, 90°, Near add +2.25. Now wearing the glass is very difficult due to focusing problem.
My right eye is also 50% affected by glaucoma and have cataract.
Please advise best solution to come out of this situation. Please sir.
One way to resolve the focussing problem is to get a catarct surgery in the right eye as well. If you become comfortable with your glasses after that you will be fine.
Hii sir my age is 18 and my eye sight number is 2.5 and 2.25 so what should i do to remove my number naturally

I am having myopia of 1.75 D in the eyes. I want to reduce it to 0.5 D in one year. Is it possible. If yes then how?

Hi,
unfortunately there are no natural ways to control eye power. Lasik and ICL are ways where you can reduce the eye power.
https://www.eyesolutions.in/specs-removal/icl-surgery-implantable-lens-for-specs-removal/
I am 28 years old. My eye power is R: -9, L: -7, What should I do to reducing this number? Is it possible to reduce it naturally? Or should I go for Lasik?
Hi,
there is no way to reduce the number naturally. Your numbers are high and may not reduce with Lasik. You may need a procedure called ICL. Please write to me at [email protected] if you would like to know more.

Sir I have glaucoma in my left eye due to trauma about 14 years ago. my right eye was 6/6 until recent years now it’s power is increasing as spherical.5 and cylinderical .5 with 40degrees. With single vision do I need to worry about it worsening or what should I do to improve or stop it.
How old are you ?
33
Dont worry about the vision going bad in the normal eye. Because you have one good eye and one week eye just make sure you get regular eye checks for the eye that has glaucoma and make sure you see an eye doctor atleast once a year for the normal eye.

Deepak

Left eye – +5 and right eye – +3,75
Can these numbers reduce in future. what I can do to reduce her eye number, I am very much worried because of her Age.
Dear Ayu,
Your daughter most likely has accomodative Esotropia. Dont worry about reducing number. Her number wont increase and most likely the squint wont be visible with glasses.

It is very important you see a glaucoma specialist. You can call 9820239958 and take an appointment with Dr Kartik.
Dont worry about glasses for now. I think you should focus on your vision and glaucoma.
hello doctor namaste
my 2 years baby increase eye power very soon . why it’s increase ?
what are treatment in this case ?

Dear Saraswati,
Eye power can increase due to many reasons, genetics is one of them. For eye numbers one has to wear glasses to be able to see clearly.
what is the number of your two year old ?
Regards
Deepak
sir meri akho me 0.5 right or 1.5 left me kya ye apne aap teek ho sakta he chashme se

Hello Sir,
My son is 4.5 years old and he has a cylindrical numbers. Below are the numbers:
Right Eye:
SPH: –
CYL: -0.75
AXIS: 90
VISION: 6/9
Left Eye:
SPH: +0.75
CYL: -1.75
AXIS: 90
VISION: 6/9 (P)
He has started wearing glasses now but would like to know is there any possibility of reducing the number naturally?
By any chance, if he wear the glasses regularly, the number will reduce? Any food to be included in the diet?
Please suggest.
Thanks much.
hi,
the number is not too large,
if you wear glasses the number will not reduce or go away.
the spherical power may infact increase slowly and gradually over the next few years.
no food would help either.
dont worry, Keep the glasses on and thats about it

Deepak
I had LASIK 3 months before and after surgery, I have blurry vision and feels like a curtain in front of my eyes. I have 0.50 cylindrical power after surgery now and ita very irritating. I am hopeless and feeling bad to have a LASIK.
You may feel like this because of dryness. Please use some lubricatns regularly and then report back to your doctor.
Aoa ! Sir ! My eyesight no. Is 10 and my age is 19 .I want to get rid of glasses. Because I am studying medical and it irritates me a lot. And I have been wearing it since my childhood.
Dear EMan, 10 is a high number and lasik may not be a suitable option for you. You need to undergo clear lens extraction. This procuedre will get rid of your glasses and also you will not harm your eyes in any way.
hello sir , my age was 21 and my number was 1.5 and 1.25 how can i remove this number

Hello sir, I am Kanika Agarwal. I am 19 years old. my eye power is +7.25 to 8. what should i do to improve my eyesight. Am i able for LASIK eye surgery.

No, not naturally.

no avneet, but the number cannot go down naturally
L- 4 , R-1.5 number can de decrease?
The number can be reduced by lasik and not by exercise or food.
if I had -3.75 eye sight can be corrected without surgery ?
If you are asking can the number go away, no it cant. You will have to wear glasses or contact lenses.
Thanks for this information. Hope for a good result .

I think you should get new glasses made so that you can see clearly. Its ok if you dont want lasik and you should be fine with glases
Hi my no. Is -4 and -4.25 my sports is football and I don’t want to stop it just coz I have specs but there is a high risk of getting severely injured while wearing specs and lenses in the game. I’m 17 right now is there any option or thing to do ?
You can wear contact lenses and at 20 years of age Lasik.

Hi ayaan,
You can wear contact lenses. Lasik you will be able to get done only when 20 years of age.
Mera beta 4 year 7 month k h uski eyesight ek k-5.5 nd-6.5 h kya aage chalkar y theek ho skti h kuch chances h iske theek hone m
Dear Shwerta, this number is very high. Your child has myopia. Please try and stop increase in this number. You have to give him zero screen and he should go and play outdoors everyday. Also child should start myopia control drops. I think best would be to go and see an eye doctor.
