Brief Answer:
vitamin A rich foods will be helpful.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to Health Care Magic,

I have read your query and understand the concern.

The healthy eyes require healthy and nutritious diet rich in vitamin A and antioxidants.

So,you can take vitamin A rich foods like green leafy vegetables, papaya, fish and its products which are good for the health of your eyes and correction of refractory errors up to some extent (but not much).

Convergence exercises by looking at a pencil or pen tip and bringing it as near as possible in front of the eyes improves convergence power and it will also be helpful for normal function of the eyes.

In addition to this,

Do not use computer for more than 1 hour constantly or take frequent breaks while using computer.

Use anti-glare coated glasses for power correction.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Dr.Sandip kabra
