This vision improvement exercise is affectionately called "Three Cups". (Sounds like some magician's trick doesn't it?) There are three levels to it; I'll just give you the Level 1 exercise here. What it does it improve the focus and coordination of your eyes.
You'll need a diagram of the cups to do this. I'll give you the link to go to the site with the image in a minute. These are the steps:
1. Find a pen or pencil.
2. Sit in your chair, relaxed of course, so you're 12 to 24 inches from your computer screen at eye level. Don't stare hard the image (of the cups), just be able to make them out.
3. Hold up the pen upright between the two circles (cups) about 1 inch from your screen. Make the tip of the pen the same level as the cups in the diagram.
4. Now, just relax your eyes on the top of the pen or pencil as you slowly move it towards your face. as you do this, you'll start seeing three circles instead of two. Here's the part to pay attention: when you see that the three circles are all the same size and shape, stop the pen.
5. Move your eyes' focus away from the top of the pen to the center circle. If you don't get it the first time, do it a few times. Some people may need a few days to practice. I had a little difficulty to make the center circle "stay" initially.
6. Once you can fix your focus on the center cup, move the pen away while trying to keep your focus. The center circle will become clearer and clearer as you become good at it.
7. Final step and the "magical" part: without your pen this time, look at the two circles and create the center circle as 3-dimensionally as possible.

Conclusion
Do these eye exercises work? Can they improve your vision so that you become less reliant or have no need for glasses anymore? Eye exercises have worked for many people to different degrees depending on each person's situation. I think it's definitely worth trying. Who doesn't want to be rid of the dependence on glasses and contact lenses?
Eye Exercise Improve Vision
The concept of vision exercise might not occur to a lot of people, but think about this. The very concept of working out in itself is a recent idea. Your grandpa or grandma probably didn't go to the gymnasium to "sweat it out". Even more so, they also didn't involve aerobics or stretching routines to their day to day chores.
Nevertheless, it is important to keep not just your body fit, but to do exercises that keep your eyes healthy as well.
A few simple exercises a day go a long way to prevent you from contracting any dreaded or unwanted eye diseases and conditions.
Laziness to do these exercises will only result in many problematic eye ailments that will cause immense amounts of discomfort, unnecessary time at the eye specialist's place, and spending tons of your precious money treating the problem that could have been prevented in the first place.
It really doesn't have to be difficult, you know.
What you can do
Try this:
Focus on any item towards the right of what you can see in front of you.
Don't lose sight of the object as you start revolving your head to the opposite direction as much as you can.
Do this again but in the other direction.
Now do it upwards, downwards, and even in the top-left, top-right, bottom left and bottom right direction.
That would be one full set. Try this at least 2 to 3 sets a day.
For the first few days, you might feel some aching, not unlike muscle aches after a gym workout. This is usual. Just be sure not to over-exert yourself.
Try this activity out and your eyes will remain strong and healthy. And if you follow a proper regime, you might not need any eye glasses or contact lenses.
