Tips for maintaining your eyes healthy!

Did you know that the 80% of our memories are stored because of what we see? This healthy vision month, let’s take care of our eyes.

Here are few tips to keep your eyes healthy -
  1. Use Sunglasses to protect your eyes: Exposure to sun’s UV(ultra-violet) rays make you prone to eye diseases like cataract. Go for sunglasses that offer protection against UVA/UVB rays to safeguard yourself.
  2. Eat Good, See Better: Eating nutritious and protein rich food gives our eyes the strength to fight off vision problems like Catract and Age-related Macular Degeneration. Vitamins C & E and essential nutrients like Zinc, Lutein and Omega-3 are recommended for healthy vision.
  3. Stop Smoking: It has been found that people who smoke regularly are at higher risk of being diagnosed with macular degeneration and cataract. It is advised that we should stop smoking to maintain our eyes healthy.
  4. Regular Eye-check Up: No matter what age you are, you should get your eyes tested regularly. Diseases like Diabetic Retinopathy and Glaucoma show no symptoms or early signs. Eye examinations help you diagnose them early and avoid vision loss.
