In today’s digital era, excessive use of mobile, laptop and TV is harming the health of the eyes. Problems like eye irritation, dryness, blurred vision and headache have become common. If care is not taken in time, the risk of vision loss may increase in the future. In such a situation, eyes can be kept healthy for a long time by adopting some good daily habits.

1. Reduce screen time

Constantly looking at mobile or laptop puts more strain on the eyes.

• Look away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes


• rest your eyes between work


• Do not keep the screen brightness too high

2. Take right diet for eyes

Nutrition is very important to maintain eyesight.
Include in your diet:

• Carrots, Spinach, Broccoli


• Amla and orange


• Almonds and Walnuts


• milk and curd

Vitamin A, C and Omega-3 present in them are beneficial for the eyes.

3. Get enough sleep

Lack of sleep can cause fatigue, swelling and redness in the eyes.

• Get 7–8 hours of sleep every day


• Avoid looking at mobile before sleeping

4. Keep eyes clean

Touching eyes with dirty fingers can cause infection.

• Do not rub your eyes again and again


• Wash face and eyes with clean water after coming from outside.


• set aside the towel

5. Be sure to wear glasses in the sun

Strong sunlight and dust can harm the eyes.

• wear sunglasses when going out


• cover your eyes in strong winds

6. Do eye exercises

Light eye exercises help in keeping vision sharp.

• Look up-down and left-right


• blink 10–15 times


• Rub palms and place them on eyes (palming)

7. Get your eyes checked from time to time

If you have frequent blurred vision, burning sensation or headache, do not ignore it.

• Get your eyes checked once a year


• If necessary, get your glasses changed on time.

Eyes are a very precious part of our body. By eating right, controlling screen time and adopting good habits, we can maintain eye health for a long time. A little caution can save you from big trouble in the future.
