A good optician is certainly one who can detect what is wrong with a person’s eyes. Whether or not he/she requires simple eye drops, glasses or maybe even surgery is something only a good optician can decide after a proper and thorough eye examination. Most eye doctors carry out basic tests in order to arrive at the problem at hand.

When visiting an optometrist, a patient can always tell whether or not the doctor is a good one. There are certain procedures every optician carries out in order to ensure the systematic approach toward eye care. Some of these procedures include:

– Asking/checking whether or not the patient has ever worn glasses. If you go to only one optician, he is likely to know this.

– He must check to see whether or not you are a candidate for glasses and/or lenses. There are some people who are not able to wear glasses or their eyes are not as weak as they usually are when glasses are prescribed. It is the job of the optician to figure this out.

– Every good optician without making any decision takes an eye test. This involves the patient reading alphabets varying in size, set at a distance. The patient is required to do this with his/her naked eye. The result is deciphered from the way in which the letters are read out.

– Discussing with the patient what discomfort he/she is facing

– A good optician always carries out basic tests which help him in deciding what exactly the problem is. Sometimes the eyes are just stressed out and need to be relaxed. For this the doctor might suggest eye exercises to be carried out. At other times, the problem can be bad for which the doctor needs to know exactly what is wrong.

Any good eye doctor ensures that he discusses the result of the eye test and examination with the patient. He would provide you with needs to be done and will probably recommend to you certain medications if glasses are not required. Try and see an optician whom you are comfortable with and who treats you well.

There are many people in the world’s population who suffer from eye problems. Most people get affected by eye problems because of carelessness however there are certainly some problems which are inherited and may be part of a person’s genetic makeup as explained on Healthy Body Healthy Mind website. Neither of these is a good sign which is why regular checkups with an optician are recommended to people, particularly young children and the elderly.

Yoga sutras Patanjali consist of 4 books; Samadhi Pada, Sadhana Pada, Vibhuti Pada and Kaivalya Pada. Samadhi Pada explain the basic of yoga. It is about the disciplines of yoga. As we know, yoga is all about mind and body. There are 3 criterias required in yoga practice, poses, breathe and also concentration. This is how we can re-establish the connection back to our bodies. Therefore this can be the most important and basic philosophy of the Yoga sutras Patanjali. Without these, yoga will be no different from other exercises.

The second book, Sadhana Pada, is about Kriya Yoga and also the eight limbs of yoga first described. The word Sadhana is practice in Sanskrit. Basically, this book is also about practice. Enlightenments and awareness of our being is the ultimate purpose in Krisya Yoga. This form of yoga is often practice by monk. Therefore, it is also often been related to Buddhism and Hindu.

Vibhuti is the word in Sanskrit for power. There are so many abilities described in the text that seem impossible to us now. But in fact Vibhuti Pada emphasizes to achieve full awareness of our bodies and awake of all senses. With the awareness, we can synchronize with the energy around us and achieve unity with the universe.

Kaivalya Pada, the book for isolation and freedom, is the last book in Yoga Sutras. How the mind works and the structure of it, is discussed in this book. All the physical being is manifest from our minds. Looking pass the physical being, we are just a pure consciousness of mind. This concept is very similar to law of attractions but it was told thousands years ago.

I have to emphasize here that yoga is not any exercise. The knowledge and wisdom behind all the poses is deep. It is design not only for our bodies but also for our minds. Maybe not everyone would like to achieve enlightenment now, but yoga practice will helps you to feel all your sensation again, reconnect you to your body and nature.
