Palming:
Begin by finding a quiet spot, close your eyes, and take a moment to breathe deeply, allowing yourself to relax. Rub your palms together vigorously until they generate warmth. Gently place your warm palms over your closed eyelids. Notice the soothing warmth transferring to your eyes, gradually easing the tension in your eye muscles. Hold this position until your eyes have absorbed the comforting heat from your hands. Close your eyes and slowly lower your hands. Rub your palms again and repeat this process at least three times for maximum relaxation.
Blinking:
Get comfortable in your seat and open your eyes. Blink rapidly ten times. Shut your eyes and take a deep inhalation, relax for few seconds. Concentrate on your breathing. Repeat this sequence approximately five times to invigorate your eyes and promote relaxation.
Eye Rotation:
Sit up comfortably with a straightened back. Rest your hands on your knees and concentrate on staying relaxed. Rotate your eyes clockwise and then counterclockwise for 5 to 10 minutes each without moving your head.
Up and Down Movement:
Stand tall on a flat surface or yoga mat. Look up toward the ceiling, then down to the floor, and back up again, repeating this motion ten times without blinking. Afterwards, gently close your eyes and apply light pressure with your palms.
Bhramari Pranayama
The act of Bhramari Pranayama can assist with easing strain and solidness in the eye muscles. It tends to be especially valuable for people who experience eye strain because of delayed perusing, PC use, or other outwardly requesting assignments.
Sit in any agreeable posture (like Sukhasan, Ardhapadmasan or Padmasana)
Fix your back and shut your eyes
Put your palms kneeling down looking up (in Prapthi Mudra)
Put your thumbs on the 'Tragus', the outer fold outside on your ear.
Put your forefinger on your brow; your center finger on the Average Canthus and ring finger on the edge of your nose
Breathe in and fill your lungs with air
As you breathe out, gradually make a humming sound like that of a honey bee, i.e., "mmmmmmm… ."
Keep your mouth shut the whole time and feel the vibration of the sound disperse all through your body.
