Besides correcting your vision, lenses with specific coatings can help protect your eyes from light and rays that may be harmful. From intense outdoor activities to interacting with digital devices, your glasses can be tailor made to both fit your lifestyle and help provide protection.
Regular exercise not only keeps your body in shape and helps you avoid severe health conditions, but it also keeps your eyes healthy. Studies show that when done regularly, exercise decreases pressure in the eyes.
Like your other organs, the eyes are affected by how you care for your body. Regular exercise can help prevent eye conditions that are linked to obesity and being out of shape. Going for a walk a few times a week can help lower pressure on the nerves in the eye.
If there is not much room in your busy schedule for exercise, make small changes in your everyday life in order to incorporate more motion, such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator.
Natural blue light from the sun plays an essential role in regulating the body’s internal clock, supporting alertness and maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm.
Indoors, however, blue light is also emitted by digital devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computer screens. When exposure extends into the evening—particularly before sleep—it can interfere with the body’s natural wind‑down process by suppressing melatonin, the hormone that signals rest.
As a result, late-evening screen use may make it more difficult to fall asleep and can affect overall sleep quality, especially when exposure is prolonged.
Consult your Eye Care Professional regarding your needs.
Always wear sunglasses when exposed to strong sunlight. Another preventative measure to protect your eyes is wearing a wide-brimmed hat or baseball cap when the sun is directly overhead. Not using proper protection makes you more likely to develop cataracts, macular degeneration or intraocular melanoma – all of which can permanently damage your eyesight.
Not all sunglasses have the same amount of UV protection. Make sure to invest in a pair with polarized or UV-protective lenses in order to block out most dangerous UV rays.
Since UV ray damage on the eyes builds up over a lifetime, it is important to protect your children right from the start. Make sure they wear hats and protective sunglasses when they are out in the sun.
