The purpose of palming is threefold: to rest your Igenics Review  optic nerve, relax your nervous system and to restore circulation to your eyes. This exercise consists of sitting in a darkened room and cupping your hands over your eyes. The heel of each hand should be resting lightly on your cheekbones. It's kind of like a meditative process in that you focus on your breathing and a total blackness or darkness. With palming you should be able to release tension. Strabismus, known as 'wandering eyes' or 'crossed eyes', is a condition where the eyes are not properly aligned. Adults who have this condition are usually told that it is too late to correct it. 

Common symptoms include double-vision, loss of depth perception; a pulling sensation around the eyes; difficulty reading; and seeing overlapping or blurred images, leading to confusion. It is almost impossible for those who have strabismus to make eye-to-eye contact because of the horrible twisting sensation in the eyes. This in turn has a devastating impact on social interactions, whether professional or personal. Until recently, insurance carriers would not cover surgery for strabismus, as they viewed it as merely cosmetic. Fortunately, things are changing, with more insurance carriers regarding the surgery as reconstructive.

Fortunately, again, our options for treating strabismus are expanding. For one thing, eye-care professionals are now saying that you're never too old for corrective surgery. This surgery involves either shortening the muscles on the outside of the eye, if the eye is turned inwards; or shortening the inner muscles of the eye if it points outwardly. Typically, the operation is performed on an out-patient basis and the patient resumes his normal routine within just a few weeks.
