Sleep helps your eyes to recover and repair themselves after the day's stress.

Adults should try to get a minimum of seven hours of sleep per night. If not possible, then at least five hours. Teenagers require eight to 10 hours of sleep every day.

The recommended hours of sleep for children depends on the age. Preschool-aged children should be allowed to sleep for 10 to 13 hours while school-age children should clock 9 to 12 hours per day.

The skin of fruits usually has the most nutrition. On many fruits and veggies such as carrots, apples, and cucumbers, a good percentage of the nutrition is actually stored in the skin.

Successful Improvement of Eyesight with Therapy for Patients with Lazy Eye Proven Possible at Later Ages by Many New Scientific Studies

Evidence-Based Peer-reviewed Scientific Research Shows that Amblyopia or Lazy Eye Can be Successfully Treated in Older Children and Adults by Susan R. Barry, Ph.D., professor of neurobiology in Biological Sciences at Mount Holyoke College and the author of Fixing My Gaze (June, 2009) and Rachel Cooper of Optometrists Network

New Scientific Research Contradicts Popular Beliefs and Mainstream Medical Practice Theories Regarding Age Limits for the Successful Treatment of Lazy Eye

There is still a general belief that amblyopia can be treated only up to various ages, such as seven (7), ten (10) or twelve (12) years old. This belief persists despite many recent scientific studies and decades of clinical reports on treatments that yield significant visual improvement and best outcomes in older children and even adult amblyopes. Notably, a 2005 multi-site study by the National Eye Institute of the National Institutes of Health demonstrated that children, ages 13 to 17, could improve vision in their amblyopic eye with a combination of glasses, patching, and near vision activities while wearing a patch. No patients over the age of 17 were included in that study so that the report does not set an upper age limit for successful treatment in older children or adults. Since that 2005 study, numerous additional studies have been done on visual improvement of lazy eye in patients over twelve years of age, including adults. Yet, these new discoveries about the treatment of lazy eye at later ages have generally not found their way into general medical eye care practice.

A groundbreaking new study brings hope to millions suffering from vision loss. Scientists have taken a major step toward regenerating retinal cells in humans, a development that could eventually restore sight for people with degenerative eye conditions like macular degeneration or retinitis pigmentosa.

Using advanced techniques, researchers have successfully stimulated retinal cells to regrow and repair damaged tissue, moving closer to reversing vision impairment. This approach targets the root cause of vision loss rather than just managing symptoms, offering a potential long-term solution for patients who previously had few treatment options.

The study’s findings mark a significant milestone in regenerative medicine, showing that the human eye may have untapped potential for self-repair when guided by cutting-edge scientific methods. If these results translate successfully into clinical treatments, restoring vision could become a reality for millions worldwide.

Experts are optimistic that continued research will refine these techniques, making vision restoration safer, more effective, and widely accessible. This breakthrough not only offers hope but also opens a new frontier in the fight against blindness.

Your eyes work in partnership with your brain. Sometimes, they bring to you, what you've already presented to yourself. Think beautiful thoughts and see beautiful shots. ❤️

Eat your food as your medicine otherwise you may have to eat medicine as your food. (Author unknown)

Don't eat junk all day because you're busy. It may not be possible to completely restore lost health.

Stay away from alcohol, to***co and hard drugs. The damage they do far outweighs whatever benefit they may give.

While most eye drops should be kept in a cool and dry place, some require refrigeration. Ask the dispensing pharmacist, your eye care practitioner, or read the information leaflet.

Ladies, don't let mascara, eyeliner (tiro), makeup get into your eyes. After a while they may cause itching, irritation and/or sandy sensation (or foreign body sensation).
