Your eyes are
your windows to the world and they are the important part of your health. As we grow older, we experience weaker vision. In addition, our risk for
vision problems that can affect our lifestyle and independence increases.
Follow these simple tips for maintaining healthy eyes.
- If working for long periods in front of system then try to take breaks every 20 minutes to half an hour.
- Stop smoking. Smokers are up to three times more likely to develop cataracts than non-smokers.
- Carrots are good for eyes. But eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is important for keeping your eyes healthy.
- Make sure you sit about 50-60 cm away from your computer screen and that there is no light reflecting off the monitor.
- If you have something in your eye, don't rub it. Lens wearers should take them out and clean them thoroughly.
- Wear protective eye wear when playing sports or doing anything around your home.
- Protect your eyes from the sun. Over-exposure to rays can cause a number of problems.
- Never use old make-ups. Replace your make-up regularly and don’t use mascara or eyeliner that’s more than six months old.
- It is very important to have a regular eye test. If you notice any changes in your vision, pain in or around your eyes or if you keep getting headaches also consult your doctor.
