Tips for caring of Eyes
Eyes are organs that detect light, and send signals along the optic nerve to the visual and other areas of the brain.Beautiful eyes sparkle if you take care of your eyes with some attention and regular checkups. It begins with lifestyle issues like what you really eat.
So,lets know some tips to take care of our beautiful eyes.
A good night's rest is what your eyes require after strenuous day.
Green leafy vegetables, carrots, liver, cod liver oil, nuts and red or yellow fruits are essential. The food should be fresh and natural. There is no point in loading oneself with self prescribed supplementary doses of Vitamin-A.
For the minor problems such as eyes strained by peering too closely at books or computer screen, you can do simple eye exercises like holding a pen out at arm's length and looking at its tip till tears roll down your cheeks. It is essential to keep a strict distance between your eyes and whatever it is you are looking at. Take frequent breaks to close your eyes for up to a minute to give them some rest.
Splash your eyes with cold water to remove puffiness.
A slice of cucumber or potato can do a trick for tired eyes.
For itching eyes, wash your eyes carefully with water. If the itch continues for a while, you must see the doctor to rule out infection. It is important that you should go for full eye examination at least once in two years till you are 40; after that your visits should be annual.
