Stop Eye Rubbing
Frequently rubbing your eyes, a common habit in India, can cause damage. It can harm delicate eye tissues, worsen irritation, and increase the risk of
infections. Think of it like repeatedly pinching a delicate flower – not good for its health. Keep those hands away!
Schedule Eye Exams
Skipping regular eye check-ups is a no-no. Conditions like glaucoma can develop silently. Regular exams help catch early signs, preventing vision loss. Think of it as your annual medical check-up; it's important for your eyes too. Don't miss those appointments!
Makeup Removal is Key
Sleeping with makeup on is a recipe for eye problems. It clogs oil glands, causing irritation and infections like styes and conjunctivitis. Remember the importance of cleansing and skincare, especially after those long, exciting festivals and weddings.
Limit Screen Time
Excessive screen time, a major concern given our digital lives, leads to digital eye strain. Prolonged exposure to phones, laptops, and TVs without breaks overworks your eyes, causing dryness and blurred vision. Take those breaks, like a tea break!
Eat Right, See Right
Your diet impacts your vision. Eyes need nutrients like vitamin A, omega 3 fatty acids, and antioxidants. A diet low in vegetables and healthy fats weakens vision. Think of a balanced thali: Include colourful veggies for optimal eye health.
