Defective Vision
Remedy Solution on 1st, 2007 Myopia, or nearsightedness, is an eye condition wherein when light entering the eye focuses in front of the retina instead of directly on it. Myopics can see things clearly when in close contact while having trouble focusing on distant objects as they appear blurred.
Symptoms
Myopia is experienced when a person can normally see things that are closer to them while having difficulty in seeing things from afar. They often have headaches or eyestrain, and have the tendency to squint their eyes in order to clear their vision. Fatigue is apparent when being active at locomotor skills.
Causes
Nearsightedness occurs if the light entering your eye is not focused correctly due to elongated eyeballs or too much curvature in the cornea.
Stress caused by too much close vision work is considered to be the root cause of myopia. Eyes are strained when reading in dim light or inside a moving vehicle and watching television with the lights off.

Wash tired eyes with clean, cool water. Dry it with a cool towel. This will enhance blood circulation in the eye area and will make you see things clearly.
Try a swinging exercise by standing with both of your feet twelve inches apart, hands held loosely at your sides. Relax your mind and body. Shake your body from side to side gently, slowly, and steadily, with the heels rising alternately but not the rest of the foot, just like a swinging pendulum. Do this exercise in front of a window or a picture, so that the window or picture appears to be moving in the opposite direction of the swing. Blink once when facing one end of the window or object.
