Healing Exercises For the Eyes
In Chinese medicine, the eyes are the opening to the liver as people with eye problems tend to have problems with their livers and conversely, people with liver disorders are likely to have eye problems.
With proper stimulation of the eyes, you can strengthen both your eyes and your liver, and help many eye conditions including cataracts, astigmatism, myopia, glaucoma and liver disorders.
There are points along the bones surrounding the eyes that are like openings into the channels of energy that feed them.
These should be encouraged to increase the flow of energy and remove the obstacles that may arise from time to time due to eyestrain, fatigue or exposure to a bad environment with poor air quality.

Exert steady pressure and if you feel pain on these spots it means that you have a problem with your eyes.
If there is no pain, your eyes are fine.
Next, massage the points with your thumbs maintaining strong pressure.
Continue massaging around the eyes in a circular motion (the part of the inside of each eye near the nose, down the temples and eyebrows and come back to the starting point).
This massage sends energy to the eyes and helps reduce wrinkling of the skin around the eyes.
Massage for a few seconds, then rub your hands together energetically and place the palms over your eyes and feel the heat penetrate them.

Anytime your eyes are tired, stop your activity and do this exercise, it will help tremendously.
You can also do additional exercises that are good for your eyes.
Here are a few:
Remember to rub your hands together and place them over your eyes after your exercises to ensure you receive the heat and energy from your hands.
