Basic Eye Care
Eye Care Tips
- Take A vitamin diet to make eyes brighter. (papaya, eggs, fish, milk, cilantro etc.,)
Wash eyes with cold water to get sparkling eyes.
- Put potato slices on your eye to get rid off those dark circles.
- Soak amla overnight in water and use this water the next morning to wash the eyes.
- Soak cotton in Luke warm milk and cover eyes with it for 15 min.
- To soothe tired eyes, dip cotton pads in chilled milk and place on closed eyes for 10 minutes. Now relax completely.
- To
completely relax the eyes and the surrounding muscles, close your eyes
and think of something that is pleasant or soothing and at a distance.
Now gently open your eyes and look into the distance. Next focus on an
object at arm's length. Do this extremely relaxing exercise four or
five times a day.
- If your eye twitches, or your eyes are red and feeling itchy, massage your scalp with curd.
- Soak
1 tsp. dry amla in one cup of water overnight. Next morning strain it
through a muslin cloth and then add one extra cup of water. Splash your
eyes with this solution each morning. This makes your eyes sparkle.
- For
Puffy Eyes: Grate a potato with its peel and apply on your closed
eyelids for about 20 minutes and relax completely. You may even take a
nap.
- Wash your
face before sleeping, and ensure that there is no make-up on your face
before you sleep, because, make-up creams may spoil your face as it
will be there for the whole night. It is better if no cream is applied.
What I feel is, wash your face before sleeping and if at all you want
to apply any cream, just apply night cream and none other than that.

Take care of your eye health in three easy steps:
1. Check your diet. How bright is your diet? Fruits and vegetables that are brightly colored contain the highest amounts of antioxidant vitamins. Antioxidants help prevent damage to your body from free radicals, byproducts of your body’s oxygen use which cause chemical oxidation to your body.
In looking for food for eye health, look for foods containing Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, selenium, lutein and zeaxanthin, the antioxidant vitamins. The top 10 antioxidant foods are berries, broccoli, soy, purple grapes, tomatoes, garlic, spinach, tea, whole grains and carrots.
Make sure your diet contains at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day and 6-11 servings of grains per day, with at least 3 being whole grains. Choosing foods high in antioxidants will give you the best foods for healthy eyes.
2. Guard the sun. Too much direct sunlight is not healthy for your eyes in several ways. Very intense exposure to ultraviolet rays can inflame the whites of your eyes. More intense light is seen when sunlight reflects off water, sand or snow (“snow blindness”).
Staring directly at the sun can cause problems as well. This can happen when you are watching a solar eclipse without proper protection. Looking directly at the sun may damage or destroy cells in your eyes and cause immediate, usually permanent, vision loss. Too much exposure to sunlight on a regular basis also leads to developing cataracts earlier than someone who hasn’t had as much sunlight exposure. Plus, a degenerative visual condition called macular degeneration is also associated with long-term exposure to sunlight.
3. Visit your eye doctor. The best way to take care of your eye health is regular visits to your eye doctor. Your eye doctor will prescribe glasses or contacts or recommend surgery to give you better vision.
Plus, your eye doctor will diagnose any eye disease or condition, such as glaucoma, and provide treatment or referrals to specialists, if needed. Your eye doctor is also able to notice markers in your eyes for other conditions, such as diabetes or neurological disorders. Schedule a visit to your eye doctor to take care of your eye health, not just to obtain a new prescription for glasses or contacts. Your eye doctor is your partner for better eye health.
