Your eyes work hard every day, so let’s keep them safe! Here are some essential tips to protect your precious eyes:
- Wear Protective Eyewear: Whether you’re playing sports, doing DIY projects, or working with chemicals, always use safety glasses or goggles.
- Take Breaks from Screens: Follow the 20-20-20 rule—every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds to reduce eye strain.
- Be Mindful of UV Rays: Always wear sunglasses that block 100% of UV rays when outdoors. Your eyes need protection from the sun too!
- Don’t Forget About Allergens: If you suffer from allergies, keep your eyes safe by avoiding rubbing them and using antihistamine eye drops when needed.
Your vision is irreplaceable! If you have any questions about eye safety or need an exam, we’re here to help!
