My name is Dan Trout and all my life I was
fascinated by the eyes. Of all the senses,
the eyes are the ones that help us discover
the world and that's why I looked for ways
to keep them healthy.
Thus, I will share with you some of these:
1. Practice frequent hand washing.
Wash your hands regularly to prevent dirty
heads getting in contact with your eyes,
eyeglasses, and contact lenses.
2. Protect your eyes from the sun.
So aside from making a fashion statement
and adding oomph to your overall look, put
on those sunglasses to protect your eyes. If
wearing them is not up your alley, UV-
protected eyeglasses or contact lenses will
do. Putting on caps, visors and hats are
also advisable.
3. Stay hydrated.
Sufficient fluid intake is essential to your
body’s overall wellbeing, including the eyes.
4. Get enough sleep.
Just like the rest of your body, your eyes
need to recharge too, and this happens
while you sleep. So make sure that you get
sufficient shut-eye each day to keep your
eyes revitalized and healthy.
5. Keep a balanced diet.
Beta-carotene, Lutein, Omega-3, Lycopene,
and Vitamins C, A, and E are essential for
maintaining your eye health. Make sure
that your diet is infused with different foods
that are rich in those nutrients.
