But did you know that there were certain DIY home remedies that can help you get rid of weak eyesight?
Mangoes
The king of fruits, mangoes are indeed great for our eyesight, be it in form of juices, pulp, slices or any mango dish. Eat as many mangoes as you can while they are in season as they are great for improving eyesight – and not just that, they are great for your taste buds too.
Carrots
Carrots contain lutein, an important antioxidant. Lutein-rich foods are known to increase the density of pigment in the macula, the yellow-shaped oval area in the center of the retina. As pigment density increases, the retina is protected more and the risk for macular degeneration decreases.
Carrot provides many benefits for healthy vision, but eating carrots every day will not restore vision to 20/20. Optical deformities like astigmatism, conditions like strabismus and diseases like glaucoma cannot be corrected by eating Bugs Bunny’s food of choice.
Palming
This is a very simple technique. Just rub your palms together and lightly place your palms over your closed eyes without applying too much pressure. Carry out this procedure out 4-5 times a day to get the best results.
Consuming pepper with honey
It is a very spicy combination but this remedy can majorly help in improving your eyesight. Take a spoon of honey and take a pinch of pepper powder, shut your eyes and eat it. Keep doing this daily for a couple of months and we promise you major improvement.
