The 20-20-20 Rule
Take a break! For every 20 minutes spent looking at a screen, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Think of it as a mini-vacation for your eyes,
perfect during those long meetings or while catching up on your favorite shows! This is a super simple technique to help relax your eyes.
Sleep, Sweet Sleep
Getting enough sleep is vital, as your eyes need time to recover. Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep to recharge. Imagine waking up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day – that’s the power of good sleep. It helps reduce puffiness and keeps your eyes bright.
Hydration is Key
Staying hydrated is crucial for overall health, including eye health! Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your eyes lubricated and prevent dryness. Think of it as a refreshing 'nimbu pani' for your eyes, keeping them feeling fresh and comfortable, especially in our climate.
Eye Exercise Time!
Just like any other muscle, your eye muscles need exercise. Practice simple eye exercises, such as focusing on nearby and distant objects, or tracing figure eights with your eyes. These exercises help improve flexibility and focus. These are especially useful after staring at a screen!
Protective Eyewear Matters
Protect your eyes from the sun's harsh rays and blue light. Invest in good quality sunglasses with UV protection when you're out and about. If you spend a lot of time in front of screens, consider blue-light-blocking glasses. It’s like wearing 'suraksha kavach' for your eyes!
