Ever considered how the BLIND feels?
Have you ever imagined what it will feel like loosing your sight for just a day?
The thought and feeling is horrible.
The eyes being the window of the soul in which we view the world,should be protected and taken care of.
This is why we present to you "WORLD SIGHT DAY" 2022. With the theme "LOVE YOUR EYES"
How do we love our Eyes;
1) By having regular eye check at least twice yearly.
Note: Early detection is key. Blindness can be prevented if it is detected early.
2)By using only recommended glasses prescribed by your Optometrist.
3) By avoiding self medication/ eye drops sold over the counter and using only recommended drugs prescribed by your Optometrist.
4) By washing your hands regularly before and after instiling your eye drop,to prevent re-infection.
5)By eating foods rich in vitamins.
6) By using recommended blue filtered lens to protect your eyes from ultraviolet rays from your phones and computers.
7)By wearing protective goggles especially for welders .
8) Practicing the 20/20/20 rule. (This means that after using your computer for 20 mins, take a break and look at a distance 20 meters away for 20 Seconds )
This helps ease eye strain and fatigue.
