As the month of October brings cooler breezes, blooming seasonal flowers, and the joy of upcoming festivities, Noble Eye Care in Bahawalpur highlights an important aspect of your well-being: eye health. Did you know that 44% of eye injuries happen at home, while 15% occur in the workplace? Nearly a million people worldwide experience eye injuries each year, and 90% of these could be prevented with the right precautions, like protective eyewear. This Eye Injury Prevention Month, Noble Eye Care is committed to raising awareness and empowering you to keep your eyes safe all year long.
Common Eye Injuries to Watch Out For:
𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬
From fixing household items to gardening, it's essential to use tools carefully and ensure they are in good condition. When drilling or hammering, especially on hard surfaces, flying fragments can pose a risk. Protect your eyes and keep your tools maintained.

With wedding season and festivals around the corner, be mindful of using safe eye products. Avoid expired or low-quality makeup and avoid costume contact lenses unless they’re prescribed by an eye specialist.
𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭
Prolonged sun exposure, especially during outdoor gatherings, can harm your eyes. Protect them by wearing sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection when enjoying outings, sports, or family events outside.
𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞
With cricket and other sports a popular pastime, it’s essential to keep eye safety in mind. Protective goggles, faceguards, and helmets can prevent serious injuries while playing in local leagues, school teams, or neighborhood games.
𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐬
Daily tasks like cooking or cleaning can lead to accidental eye injuries. Hot oil splashes or fumes from cleaning products are common culprits. Always use eye protection where necessary and follow instructions carefully.
