Methods That Maintain Eyes Health

Eye health covers topics such as proper functioning of vision, protection from infections, prevention, and treatment of diseases.

Eyes have an extremely important place in our lives and are organs that are at the center of our daily activities and that we use frequently. Therefore, it is very important to protect eye health.

There are many diseases that threaten your eye health. The most important of these are cataracts, glaucoma, infection, and yellow spot. Not only does it affect your quality of life but it can also lead to temporary or permanent vision loss if not treated on time. However, if you are careful, it's possible to prevent these possibilities and protect your eyes with simple precautions.

Considerations for Protecting Eye Health

In order to protect your eye health, there are some recommendations that you should follow. You can find them listed below.

• Nutrition has a huge impact on eye health. Especially vitamin A, lutein, zeaxanthin, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids are important for eye health. You can protect your eye health by consuming foods containing these nutrients. For example, carrots, spinach, salmon, tuna, walnuts, almonds, eggs, and orange-colored fruits are beneficial for eye health.
• Using the eyes for a long time, especially working with devices such as computers, phones, and tablets can cause eye strain. This fatigue can lead to discomfort such as dry eyes, headache, blurred vision, stinging, burning, and itching in the eyes. Therefore, to protect your eyes, you can take frequent breaks to rest your eyes, adjust the lighting correctly and do eye exercises.
• Genetic factors also have an effect on eye health. Some diseases may have a genetic predisposition. For example, people with a family history of diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration are at higher risk. You can take precautions by sharing this information with your doctor.
• Sun rays can cause adverse effects on eye health. Especially ultraviolet (UV) rays can damage your eyes. Therefore, it is important to use sunglasses. Make sure your glasses are UV-protective. In addition, when choosing sunglasses, reflections can be reduced by choosing polarized glasses.
• Smoking can have adverse effects on eye health. Smoking can increase the risk of diseases such as dry eye, bloodshot eyes, eye infections, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Therefore, you can protect your eye health by avoiding smoking.

Of course, it's very important to see the ophthalmologist regularly and not miss the examinations. Your doctor can detect diseases in your eyes early and prevent their progression by starting treatment.
