TO STUDY EFFECT OF YOGA EYE EXERCISE ON MEDICAL COLLEGE STUDENTS WITH REFRACTIVE ERROR
Yoga eye exercise is supposed to improve various ocular symptoms and even vision. The study was planned among 30 medical college students who had refractive error. All the subjects practiced yoga eye exercise for 6 weeks. A questionnaire of ocular symptoms, Near point of accommodation (NPA), Near point of accommodation (NPC), fusion range (FR) and refractive error were evaluated before and after 6 weeks of yoga eye exercise. FR improved from 11.630 ±7.946 to 17.10 ± 9.019 and NPC from 8.00cm ±1.819 to 5.07cm ± 1.461. The difference was statistically significant. NPA and status of refractive error showed no change. Yoga eye exercise for 6 weeks showed significant changes in ocular health
