To be honest, I don't do anything, I've always had good eyesight.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
Possible exercises really improves eyesight. But I always don't have time for myself. Especially now there are operations to replace the lens, they are now more affordable.
I always take vitamin complex, so I'm sure that for the eyes they are also useful.
3. Was this video helpful?
Probably not. It's funny what kind of vision in the video tells the guy with glasses)
I don’t practice eye gymnastics and the only vitamins that I’m taking are in vegetables. Nothing else…
Maybe not helpful but interesting and worth watching.
I’ve heard about eye gymnastic before and even made it on special site( I don’t remember it’s url) but it didn’t help me. I strongly believe that amount of vitamins that I get from good nutrition is just enough to fulfill this need.
Yes, this video was helpful and quite information. I would even recommend it for my friends with the same problem.
Firstly, I enable TrueTone and Night Shift on my Mac and my iPhone. This means, that throughout the day, the monitor changes its spectrum and emits way less blue light during the day and especially in the evenings.
Secondly, I customize my workspace to reduce high contrast and the amount of bright light that’s targeting my eyes. I use dark mode in editors and I have a custom code highlighting schemes which have way less contrast than the built-in ones.
Last but not least, I tend to watch the time I spend in front of the screen and take breaks once in a while. During those breaks, I try to stare out of the window on faraway objects, which is basic eye gymnastics.
I do not take any vitamins and I haven’t tried any pharmaceutical method to keep my eyes healthy.
Almost nothing, but I have to start doing something. My eyes condition was much better a year ago.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
I'm taking lutein every day and I think that it helps a little.
3. Was this video helpful?
Yes it was ! I will try to use these recommendations next monday.
I make breaks, trying to not using low brightness on my phone or on my laptop.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
Yes, I do eye gymnastics 3 times a week for 20 minutes. What about vitamins, i used to have some, but i don't think they helped me a lot.
3. Was this video helpful?
Of course, yes, it was really helpful. I'm not a fan of someone learns me what to do, but this informations was really useful.
I don't do any eye gymnastics, i didn't even know such thing exists. But i do exercises with my wrist, because it hurts when i use my mouse too much. Maybe i should work on my eyes too (as other computer users i have some problems with them).
For me video was fun to watch but nothing more. I didn't learn anything from it.
I always use special glasses for working at the computer. They unfortunately do not always help, because periodically I feel a decline in vision.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
Very rarely do exercises for the eyes when I remember that it is really necessary. I do not accept vitamins now, but this is a good idea.
3. Was this video helpful?
Some facts took note, as they are really new to me. I will try to follow the regime for the eyes.
I've very good eyesight, however, many hours of work on the computer badly affect the snow. I bought glasses to work at the computer, so how do I care about my eyesight and try not to bother with eyesight.
I take vitamins regularly, but unfortunately I am unable to supplement them with a proper diet. That's why I believe that I have no gaps here.
The film is probably useful for other people.

No, I don’t practice any gymnastics and don’t take any vitamins.
No, all information that was mentioned in video I already knew.
Nothing. They are in a preeeeeetty bad condition and actually should take care of them. At least try. But maybe I will start it next year. Or in two years. Or three. Maybe ten.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
The same as the previous answer. Nothing at all.
3. Was this video helpful?
Helpful would mean that I am actually going to use any information from it. But probably I will forgot it all in a week or two, going back to slowly killing my eyes a bit more every single day.
I take a break from screen every at least one hour.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
No I don't.
3. Was this video helpful?
I knew all informations presented in this video earlier.
My eyes are in rather bad condition but actually I do not do much to take care of them.
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
I use to take some vitamins but I have stopped some months ago. I don't do eye gimnastics. I know I should and maybe that will be my new years resolution ;)
3. Was this video helpful?
Yes, it was helpful. I will try the recommendations.
Hmm.. that's a problem cause I always forget about it :/ I'm studying using computer, I'm working using computer, I play using console and computer. For many hours a day I harm my eyes and I havn't realized it :/
2. Do you practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
Never done any eye gymnastics or took any vitamins especially for eyes.
3. Was this video helpful?
Yes. I will keep tips in mind, I think that taking a break every 20 minutes or even 40 for 20 seconds can save me from pain that I'm sometimes having :)
Also other useful informations were presented so I'm glad to know more :)
I do not practise eye gymnastics or take some vitamins. Maybe I should because I think that my eyesight is getting worse.
It was really helpful. I learned so many thing that for sure will make my eyesight better.
I don't take any vitamins for my eyes
Yes, I found out some interesting things.
No, I don't but if I feel too tired after starring countless hours into a screen than I can take a short nap.
Yes, the video was very informative and provided some interesting facts about human vision and how it is affected by blue light for example.
I take a lot of vitamins, I take a brake from monitor.
Do you practice eye gymnastics or take some vitamins?
I think that this question is somewhat similar to the first one, so I certainly take a vitamin for correct sight + I tear my eyes away from the monitor looking at another object.
3. Was this video helpful?
I think he was interesting but he did not help me
2. I don't practise eye gymnastics or take any vitamins but after this video I will consider it!
3. It was quite interesting, thank you that you share it! As a programmers we should remember that we have to take care of our eyes because we're spending a lot of hours during our normal day.
But it was funny to watch this presentation about how blue light might be harmful to our eye and to notice at the same time, that the background of this video was all blue! It felt kind of surreal to me for a moment.
Eye gymnastic or just looking at something far away from you every 20 minutes is a good idea but the problem with that is to remember you should do it. If I'm focused on something on the screen, be it some important work or just an engaging game, I always lose track of time and just forget to do it. I have to find some better way to remind myself to take short breaks. That's good for my eyesight and it's good for my back as well.
I have been taking vitamins for last 3 or 4 years and I would continue to do that if only my other health problem didn't prevent my from doing that.
I saw that video before since I'm a regular viewer of Sci shows. I would say it's rather interesting then actually useful
Hmm, I have special eye drops, I am making short breaks for regeneration and using f.lux as extra program in my computer. Additionally, I am thinking about glasses for my job where I am looking at the screen by 8-10 hours. We have to be careful about our sight.
As I said, I am taking eye drops. Gymnastics sounds great so I will remember about that. What about vitamins? I am not sure that C, D vitamin contain something for eye but if it possible then yes, I am taking vitamins :)
To be honest, I have heard about everything what was mentioned in your video so I can't say that was something new but it is good to remind important knowledge.
- I have never heard about practice eye gymnastics, But I'll read about it and I don't take any vitamins.
- Actually, I just want to tell you, Thank you for sharing this video, In general, Good luck with your eyes health.
I do not take any vitamins and I do not do any exercises, but I should probably start. I have very good eyesight and have never had problems with it, let it stay that way.
I believe that I will adhere to the various techniques included in this video, they can help me relax my eyes and help me keep their great condition for as long as possible.
