Journalists are accustomed to stumbling in the dark in search of a dark story and as they face their first race taking place at dusk, here are some facts and anecdotes about observing in the dark.<\/p>\n
Wearing an eye patch will help you see in the dark<\/b>:<\/p>\n
Believe it or not, but it’s true. Many pirates used to wear an eye patch, not because the eye was damaged, but because they found that the eye saw better in the dark when they needed it.<\/p>\n
Carrots improve vision:<\/b><\/p>\n
Vegetarians like this one, but it’s not really true. Vitamin A is essential for good eyesight, but there’s no need to make it a daily staple and eat it by the kilos!<\/p>\n
Shine a red light in your eyes and eat sugar:<\/b><\/p>\n
Apparently, the elite Russian army troops used this technique before entering combat at night to enhance vision.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sitting too close to the TV will damage your vision:<\/p>\n
Not true: there is no evidence that sitting too close to the television will damage your eyes.<\/p>\n
Close your eyes.<\/b><\/p>\n
Keep your eyes tightly closed for about 10 seconds before entering a dark place to help you adapt to the darkness much faster.<\/p>\n
Being a Ninja:<\/b><\/p>\n
Those who practice Ninjutsu believe that the key to seeing clearly in darkness is to lower oneself below what you are trying to see, allowing you to see the outline of objects against the light of the moon and stars.<\/p>\n
Use your peripheral vision:<\/b><\/p>\n
It takes a bit of practice, but it definitely works in the dark. Try not to look directly at what you want to see.<\/p>\n
