text: how can i improve my eyesight ??? i have a power of almost -9 dioptres, actually more. can't go in for lasik (laser) as my power hasn't been steady for the past few years. is there anything which someone out there has tried and which does not require extreme effort, money or time ?? no problem buddy. heres the deal.  1) avoid using computer too much from too short distance, but if you have to work try to put a uv protection screen on the front of your monitor/laptop.  2) if using a crt monitor (the old big ones) throw it away cuz ur eyes are much more valuable than anyting out there. buy the one with lcd/tft screen which now have low emission and a 20 inch will just cost $300 which is nothing compared to your eyes.  3) the glasses/spectacles you are wearing change them, and get a new lens with the power you require but go for a new type of lenses rather costyl which are called polariod lens or uv protector aka double layer coated lens.  4) eat as much green as possible, including carrots which have a precursor of vit a, also you can take vitaming supplements with the help of your doctor.  5) try to take a walk on grass or go to greener areas and walk there for 30 min or so thrice in a week.  i hope this helps you. and will pray for you.
