In
today’s tech world
people spend a lot of time sitting before computers and laptops;
this is 100%
 true
in the case of software engineers, computer geeks, internet
addicts, and online gamers. Those people who involve in these
activities do face several eye related problems at some stage of
their life and this is because they don’t care or think about
their eyes. And for those people who are really interested to
overcome these problems, I hope my tips on how to take care of
eyes will certainly come in handy.
1. Eye exercises:
this is one of the best tips in eye care where you should try to
create
some
short breaks from your regular work and in those breaks
try to do follow this exercise which is very simple and easy –
“ blink your eyes first for several times and after
that keep your eyes closed and just roll your eyes clockwise and
anticlockwise and in between this process take several deep
breaths and breathe out slowly and open your eyes” do
this exercise for about 1 minute and repeat it for 2 – 3 times
before going to work.
2. Look distant
objects: if you are
spending long hours, look at distant objects in your work place
or outside. This method of looking at distant object and
returning to normal near vision helps the eyes to focus better.
Try to do this for about 5min every 1 hour.
3. Follow the
palming method: in this method rub your hands against
each other till you get them warm and with this you cup your
eyes for about 1 minute. This helps to relax and soothe your
tired eyes. There are two advantages of this method where your
eyes get relaxed and elbows get exercised.
4. Have a walk:
in between the breaks you take a walk, which helps in relaxing
your body as well as your eyes with good blood supply.
5. Water magic:
you can use water for several ways:
a) You can splash
water on your face which helps you feel refreshed and relaxed.
b) Drink
more water which helps in reducing puffiness of your eyes.
6. Take healthy
food: eat fruits especially
citrus, tomatoes, spinach, green vegetables and dairy products
which contain vitamins like A, C and E.
a)
Visit physician:
visit the eye specialist, at least once in a year and if you
have any problems related to eye then immediately visit him.
b) Reduce intake of
alcohol and smoking: nicotine and alcohol contain several
toxins which affect the optic nerve in the long run so avoid
taking alcohol and cigarette.
c)
Please don’t rub your eyes:
never rub your eyes when any dust particle enters your eyes
rather just blink your eyes so that the tears which are produced
clear off the dust material. Rubbing of eyes will irritate and
sometimes damage eyes, further if you any problem in removing
the dust particle immediately consult the doctor.
d) Better use anti
glare glasses: these glasses are used to focus on any
object. These glasses can be used while working with the
computers as suggested by some physicians.
