Choosing sunglasses
Not only the sun's UV rays can damage the skin and increase the risk of skin cancer, but also can accelerate the arrival of a degenerative eye disease. Therefore, wear sunglasses when outside is mandatory.
Moreover, sunglasses are also useful to protect your eyes from dust or other debris that can cause eye infections.
Often we think, the darker the lenses of glasses, the more protection we can. That is wrong..
Goodhew said, assessing the protection of sunglasses is not seen from the color of the lens or the price, but you should buy sunglasses labeled test pass certificate.
For example if a product from Australia and New Zealand no label AS / NZS standard 1067: 2003. Look for lenses category at least two, but preferably three.
Advice for those who spend a lot of time in front of computers, tablets and mobile phones
We recommend that you follow the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, hover view in the other direction as far as 20 feet (6.1 m) for 20 seconds. This helps reset the focus of the eye and reduce eye strain.
The bad habit that is often done by many people related to their eye health
According to Goodhew, most people assume that their eyes are perfect if they can see very well. However, the test 20/20 vision is only one aspect.
Mata is also a window to see a lot of things about your health. Eye exam can reveal a number of issues, ranging from type 2 diabetes to eye cancer, because of high blood pressure.
Routine examinations are recommended
For children, Goodhew recommends the first eye examination performed between the ages of six and 12 months, then at the age of three years, then once a year from the age of school entry.
For adults at least once every two years and every year for those who wear contact lenses or the risk of diabetes, hypertension or thyroid disease.
For those aged from 65 years, annual checks should be supplemented with relevant examinations for eye conditions, such as macular degeneration, cataracts and glaucoma.
