To keep a sharp eyesight, we can realize it from daily diet. such as eating lots of oranges and yellow fruits and vegetables like spinach. In addition, a study found that people who bicycled four times a week for 40 minutes had a 20% drop in eye pressure.
Long-term exposure to ultraviolet rays is harmful to our eyes, so wear sunglasses with a special coating that locks UV light.

By eating carrots also we can keep our eyes sharp
.Yes spinach is also very good for the eyes.Taking a break after one hour is really good for the eyes.We must also drink lots of water to keep our eyes moist.I have my spectacles coated with uv protection.I also have an antiglare screen with my monitor.

Besides what you mentioned here are some exercises for good eyesight
1) Rotate the eyes in clockwise direction six or 7 times and then anticlockwise the same number of times.
2) blink a fwe times rapidly to increase blood circulatin in the head and eye region.
3) stare continously on a point like candle flame or anything for 3 to 4 minutes.

I never knew that bicycling is good for eye sight. For these days youngsters sitting for hours before the computer must be one reason why there is deterioration in eyesight. Perhaps, there could also be the study pressure... reading for hours.

One thing I can add to keep an eyesight sharp is to never read whenever the sun is rising or setting...this event gives a tremendous stress to our eyes. Whenever the sun is rising or setting, it is best to just enjoy the view and don't read or knit or do whatsoever that requires focusing.
