Three Ways to Love Your Eyes This Valentine’s Day!
Don’t forget to show your eyes some love in three key ways:
1. Maintain a healthy diet by eating foods rich in anti-oxidants, including spinach, kale, broccoli, carrots and red peppers.
2. Wear sunglasses that block 99 to 100 percent of both UV-A and UV-B radiation – even in the winter.
3. Everyone is spending more and more time in front of a screen these days. Make sure to follow the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break to look at something 20 feet away. If you’ve been looking at a screen more than two hours, give yourself a 15-minute break to rest your eyes.
Most importantly, don’t forget to schedule an appointment for an annual comprehensive eye exam with your local optometrist.
