Often, we take our eyes for granted and do not take proper care of them as we do our teeth or our skin. Taking care of our eyes is important especially since we use our eyes a lot. When we spend time in the office, use the computer, read documents, and watch TV at home, we put a lot of strain on our eyes and wear them down. Taking care of our eyes is just a matter of developing good habits, as well as visiting your eye doctor in urbane scrubs regularly. Below are some tips for taking care of your eyes and keeping them healthy.
Eating healthy
As with any of your body part, one of the best ways to keep your eyes fit and healthy is to eat nutritious food. Fruits and vegetables and rich in antioxidants that help slow down the process of aging and the deterioration of eyesight. Vitamins that are good for the eyes include vitamin C, A, and E. These three vitamins help decrease the risk of cataracts and macular degeneration. Most fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins C, A, and E. Beta carotene are also popularly known to help maintain good eye sight. Some of the fruits and vegetables high in beta carotene include carrots, squash, and yellow and red peppers.
Pampering your eyes
Soothe your tired eyes with cold cucumber slices. Gently press the cucumber slices against the eyes and leave there for ten minutes. You can also use a cool towel in place of the cucumber. Just put it above your closed eyes and leave for a few minutes. This will also help get rid of puffiness and eye bags for more beautiful and attractive eyes.
Contact lenses
If you wear contact lenses, as much as possible, do not wear them for more than 12 hours. At all costs, do not wear your contacts when you sleep. Leaving your contacts on for too long may cause permanent damage to your eyesight as well as cause extreme discomfort. If you can help it, do not wear contacts at all and use glasses instead. Not only is this safer, it will also save you a lot of money.
Eye drops
Use eye drops sparingly as some of these may contain powerful ingredients that will only do worse for the eyes. Opt for eye drops that are made of 'tears,' which can actually be used more frequently. Avoid those that are made to 'get the red out' as these have stronger chemicals. Read the labels of eye drops carefully to know how often you can use them. Chronic daily use of eye drops may just worsen irritation to the eyes. Also take note that when you are wearing contacts, there are many eye drops that you cannot use with them.
Protection from the sun
Exposure to too much sun damages the eyes and accelerates its deterioration and aging. One of the best ways to protect the eyes from the sun is by wearing sunglasses. When choosing sunglasses, get one that has high UV protection and has polarized lenses. Simply getting dark lenses is not enough to protect the eyes as it only makes the pupils dilate and do not anything to stop the UV rays from reaching the eyes.
