FEATURES OF EXPRESS RELAXATION DURING OCULAR MOTOR SYSTEM OVERLOAD

Abstract

The work is devoted to determining the peculiarities of applying muscle express relaxation technique in cases of ocular motor apparatus overload. Variants of endurance of the convergent- accommodative apparatus of the eye in the subjects were identified. A correlation between the results of relaxation exercises and the type of endurance of the ocular motor apparatus was established. Positive results of applying the proposed exercises with palming according to the method of M.S. Norbekov were observed in individuals with active and moderate types of ocular motor apparatus endurance. Unsatisfactory results of applying the proposed relaxation method in cases of ocular apparatus overload were determined in individuals with slow endurance of the convergent-accommodative apparatus.Conclusions: 1. Evaluation of the endurance of the convergent-accommodative apparatus of the eye is an informative indicator of the functional state of the visual organ. 2. Determining the endurance of the convergent-accommodative apparatus of the eye is advisable for assessing the effectiveness of exercises aimed at improving the functional ability of the visual organ. 3. Applying muscle express relaxation to alleviate 60-minute ocular apparatus overload with palming according to the method of M. Norbekov has a 50 per cent positive effect.4. The effectiveness of applying the proposed relaxation exercises depends on the level of endurance of the visual apparatus
