Onhow to care for your eyes and preserve your vision
One
of the greatest enemies of our eyes is the sun. Just like the skin,
eyes are damaged by UV rays coming from the sun, whether it is overcast
or a clear and sunny day. Sunglasses should always be warn in daylight
hours when you are outside and you need to be sure that the sunglasses
you choose offer UV ray protection. There are many sunglasses sold
which are just tinted glass and do not really protect your eyes, they
simply offer shade from the brightness. Check the label on your
sunglasses before you buy them and be sure to wear them.

Reading , working on the computer and watching television really can
harm your vision. When you are doing any of these things which require
staring at one place for a long time, it is important to take frequent
brakes and look at things farther away for a bit, and look around from
time to time to offer your eyes a break and minimize fatigue. There are
special films offered for computer screens to minimize the amount of
harm done to your eyes from looking at the monitor for long periods of
time.
Frequent check-ups with your optician will
help keep your eyes healthy. If your eyes become a little weak, wearing
glasses for a period of time can often strengthen your eyes back to the
point where you no longer need them. If you continue to let your eyes
deteriorate without visiting the eye doctor, the damage may be too
great to reverse. Often, your prescription will change in a short
period of time and it is important to keep on top of it to avoid
further damage to your eyes.
Take care of your eyes, remember, you only get one pair!
