20/20 anyone?
How many of you wear contacts or glasses? It feels like hardly anyone these days has perfect vision. We all blame it on pollution, or the excessive amount of hours spent before a computer screen. But unfortunately, we can't change that. What we can change, is the way we take care of our eyes. Check this article out.
I love the sunglasses tip! It's an excuse for a great fashion accessory.
What I found SUPER surprising though was the fact that carrots aren't as good for your eyes as leafy greens like kale and spinach! I guess bunnies' eyes aren't as sharp as we thought they were.
As I mentioned before, it's crucial that we take care of our eyes now. Sure, we poke in our contacts in the morning and we can't feel a thing all day. But we can't afford to abuse our eyes now; the repercussions are dangerous and terrifying.
A tip: when you're studying or doing homework, take a break to "stretch your eyes". Look to a point far in the distance, then shift your focus to something nearer; alternate between the two, roll your eyes around, and then go back to studying. Exercising your eye muscles is a great way to "keep them in shape"
That's it for now, folks.

Yeeaa I definitely need to take better care of my eyes.
ReplyDeleteI never though about the severe repercussions of failing to care for our eyes. Good point. I have had contacts for many years and although I wash my eyes after I take my contacts off and rarely wear them after sleeping, caring for my eyes is not a thought that comes into my mind frequently.
