4 ways to keep your eyes healthy while swimming:

1. Wear goggles while swimming. Goggles keep pool chemicals out of your eyes, helping to keep your tear film healthy.
2. Wash your eyes with fresh water immediately after swimming, doing this washes chlorine and other chemicals off your eyelids and eyelashes.
3. Use over-the-counter lubricating eyedrops before and after swimming to keep the tear film balanced and eyes comfortable.
4. Stay Hydrated. Staying well hydrated is an important part of keeping your eyes moist and comfortable.

Why Is Dry Eye So Difficult To Treat?

Almost half (48%) of patients with dry eye said they followed their treatment plan carefully, but only 13% experienced lasting relief

Most people say that over-the-counter eye drops alone do not provide sufficient relief, and seek out additional treatments

Home remedies include drinking additional water throughout the day (reported by 76% of survey respondents), using a warm compress (56%), blinking often (52%), avoiding ci******es and secondhand smoke (45%) and thoroughly removing eye makeup (34%)

Between a quarter and a third of people say that their condition has been written off as an “old person’s disease” or attributed to something less severe such as allergies

Nearly half of people feel others don’t understand what they’re going through or appreciate the reality of their discomfort

Many people struggle with multiple symptoms such as dryness (76%), foreign body sensation (64%), eye fatigue (62%), light sensitivity (62%) and blurred vision (60%), as well as burning, scratchiness and itchiness

Dry eye interferes with many aspects of everyday life, including driving at night (56%), reading (42%), using a computer (34%) and watching television (24%)

Is there a link between having cataract surgery and a decreased risk of developing Dementia??

New research suggests cataract surgery may cut the risk of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia by 29%. The study was published in JAMA Internal Medicine.

This isn't the first time researchers showed that vision loss is an important risk factor for cognitive decline, nor is it the first study to show cataract surgery can protect against Alzheimer's disease and dementia.

The researchers suggest a possible reason why:
Impaired vision may reduce input to the brain, leading to brain shrinkage, which is a risk factor for dementia.
