5 Eye Sight Care Tips You’ll Always Need

Oh the eyes, they can be so powerful. It’s how you can read emotions on someone’s face, it’s how you interact in day-to-day life, it’s just so essential. Everyone knows the standard, eat right, get enough sleep, and exercise a bit. But, what about your eyesight? There are a lot of self care practices out there, and one that shouldn’t be forgotten would be taking care of your eyesight. These are five handy tips for boosting your eye health!

Start a Daily Eye Care Routine

Eyesight is the most important sense we have. It helps us to see, hear and make decisions. With proper eye care, our eyesight can last a lifetime. A healthy eye care routine includes:

  • Washing your face with warm water and soap in the morning

  • Rinsing your eyes with cool water after washing your face

  • Not applying so much force on your eyes

  • Having good contact hygiene, if you wear them

Even though some things may be too hard to prevent like cataracts and cataract implants, having solid eye health is incredibly important.

Take a Break from Screens

We are constantly connected to our phones and computers, which can be detrimental to our eyesight. It is important to take a break from your phone or computer and go on a short nap. The eye strain from staring at screens for too long can lead to dryness, headaches, blurry vision, fatigue, and even eye damage.

 Whether it’s work or leisure, phones, computers, and TV screens are always around. Have a time where you’re not looking at these. But, when you need to use them, why not use software like Flux?

Careful Putting Products Around Your Eyes

Even if something says it’s “all-natural” you will still need to be careful. This may be obvious, but you must be careful with what goes on and around your eyes.

Wear Sunglasses to Protect Your Eyes from Harmful Ultra-Violet Rays

Wearing sunglasses is a simple way to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. But, there are other ways of protecting your eyes as well, such as wearing sunglasses with polarized lenses that block out 95% of the sun's rays. While there are plenty of fashionable sunglasses out on the market, just make sure you pack them around with you, your eyes need them and this can make a large difference too.

Clean Your Eyeglasses Regularly

Wearing clean eyeglasses truly can make a world of a difference when it comes to your eye health. Eyeglasses should be cleaned with a microfiber cloth and mild soap. The lens should also be washed regularly with a solution of water and gentle soap. If you do not have a solution for cleaning your eyeglasses, use a clean, soft cloth or paper towel to wipe the lenses. If you are wearing your glasses on the go, make sure to bring an extra pair with you in case they get dirty while away from home. The most important step of all is to ensure that your glasses are stored in a case when not in use so that they don't get scratched or smudged by other items inside your bag or purse.
