Ways to Improve Your Eyesight

1. Eat lots of carrots, and when i mean lots, i mean heaps. A carrot a day keeps the optometrist away. Your carrot should be boiled and be about 7 and a half inches long.

2. Look at the colour green a lot. Green is good for your eyes so it is especially good you look outside when you are driving through the country, or driving through a forest.

3. Eating either a boiled chicken liver or pork liver a WEEK is good for you. Liver contains a lot of vitamin a, so eating it once a week is enough.

4. When you are reading, always keep the book, newspaper or computer screen at least 30 centimetres away. This ensures your eyes don't get any worse.

5. Don't read, watch tv, or go on the computer for more than 45 minutes at a time. You need to take a break every half hour to 45 minutes. Your break should be doing something physical, as so your eyes can rest. This could be just walking around, talking to your siblings, or taking the rubbish out and doing other household chores. This is so your eyes won't get tired.

hAha, great to hear you're doing all you can to improve your eyes. lol, jk. I hope you try and correct your habits. thanks for reading and commenting.

Not to be rude but, i doubt it... would be nice to know were you got your information from though

Posted: Feb 10, 2008

Author Comment:

oh, you're not being rude. Well, i recently did a project at school about micronutrients, and i chose to do vitamin A. the rest of the info was from the optometrist when i got my eyes checked.

So that's another reason I'm always staring out the car window. I guess my mind knew something I didn't. And I always eat carrots.

The only weird thing for me my sight seems to be better in the dark. I think it is because I've taught myself to read with lack of light, but not total darkness. I think it made them a little stronger. They don't strain like my mom says they do.

hey, thanks for commenting. Hmm... your eyes seem to better in the dark, i think thats good, but its not good to read with a lack of light. In the long run, ur eyes will still get worse. I guess i somewhat agree with your mum, but i guess it does make your eyes. stronger. good to know that you always eat carrots.

lol nice i wounder if i can follow those....lol.nice lol.

thanks for commenting. I'm telling you, these do work. I recently just did a vitamin A project for school, and vitamin A is mainly about eyes, so i should know.

ewww I don't wanna eat liver DON'T MAKE ME. Wait. I'm vegetarian I HAVE AN EXCUSE!!! YAY!! Anyhoo-it's cool I like lists. I have a serious thing for lists: once, when I was bored I made this like HUGE list of every person I'd ever met who had brown hair. I know. I have no life *cries*

Posted: Feb 11, 2008

Author Comment:

well, i like liver. lol. it doesn't taste as bad as you think. List r cool, really a list of ppl who have brown hair, awesome! How long was it? and everyone has a life, i know what you mean, but technically, if u had no life, you would be dead.

Verry good. interesting as well.

thanks very much. thanks for commenting and reading.

Carrots = If you eat a lot your skin can be yellow.
Green color = This is good to know.
Liver = I rather eat glass.
30 centimetres = I can try !
45 minutes = I would like to be able but only on my vacations .
This is a very necessary public service , many people don't think about it all along the day . You are doing a favor for us . Thank you very much, friend.

I'm glad to be doing a favor for the Booksie community. It's called community service, or global service, because it's on the internet. One of my goals is to make a difference to the world, and i guess this is a start. Really? your skin can turn yellow if you eat a lot? i don't think so. I know that they contain this ingredient which is good for your eyes. You should try eating liver. Always try and taste everything. Some things sound really gross, but taste great. One example, snails, a french delicacy. thanks for commenting and reading. I really appreciate it.

Stay away from pork. Period. Especially the liver, which filters out all the henous poisons a pig ingests. Seriously. Pork spelled backwards is C-A-N-C-E-R.

Author Comment:

Really, pork is that bad for you. A bit of liver is good for you, but a lot isn't. You should eat everything including a tiny bit of fatty foods. You know, vitamin A is fat-soluble, meaning it need fat to dissolve.

I wear glasses, so this helps. Although im not sure about the liver part.... but apart from that im doing everything else or i am going to start to do it.
Thankyou!

Author Comment:

thanks for commenting. Haha, i have bad eyesight too, but not bad enough for glasse just yet. Trust me, liver has even more vitamin A than carrots, and it doesn't taste that bad, well chicken liver anyway.

I will have to do some of these things sometime.

Author Comment:

So that's probably why I wear glasses...

Anyways, thank you for posting this! I think I'll try to start using these from now on so my eyesight doesn't get any worse.

If you were glass can that affect your vision?

Author Comment:

if u wore glasses, doing this could help your eyes, but it depends if ur long sighted or shortsighted.
