Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Oculomotor Exercise Program

This intervention is a structured oculomotor exercise program based on the Health Promotion Model, developed to improve sleep quality among older adults living in a nursing home. The program focuses on enhancing visual-motor coordination and relaxation through systematic eye movement exercises. Participants in the experimental group perform oculomotor exercises three times per week for four consecutive weeks under researcher supervision. The program includes educational support and brief motivational guidance to encourage adherence and consistency. Follow-up sessions are conducted during the following two months to monitor sleep patterns and maintain behavioral improvement. This intervention differs from traditional exercise programs by targeting the oculomotor system and incorporating health promotion principles to support better sleep and overall well-being in older adults.
