Methods to restore vision after vision deterioration include:

1. Rest your eyes. Prolonged staring at computer screens, mobile phones, or other electronic devices can cause eye fatigue. Every 20 minutes, look into the distance for 20 seconds to give your eyes regular rest.

2. Eye exercises. Appropriate eye movements can strengthen eye muscles and promote blood circulation, which may aid in vision recovery.

3. Dietary adjustments. Consuming foods rich in vitamins A, C, E, and zinc—such as carrots, dark green vegetables, nuts, and fish—can benefit eye health.

4. Proper eye usage. Maintain correct posture while reading, ensure adequate lighting, and avoid reading or using electronic devices while traveling in a moving vehicle.

5. Wearing glasses. If vision loss is caused by refractive errors, wearing appropriate glasses or contact lenses can correct the problem. Regular eye examinations are also important for timely detection and management of vision issues.

6. Medication. Patients with myopia or dry eye syndrome may use medications under a doctor's guidance, such as sodium sulfacetamide eye drops or moxifloxacin hydrochloride eye drops.

7. Surgical treatment. Patients with hyperopia or astigmatism may consider surgical options such as implantable intraocular lens surgery. However, postoperative recovery takes longer and may involve some discomfort.

Before undertaking any method to restore vision, it is important to follow the guidance of a doctor and maintain good eye hygiene by avoiding rubbing the eyes with your hands.

If vision deteriorates significantly or fails to improve, seek medical attention promptly.
