May is Healthy Vision month!

‍

May is the A‍merican Optometric Association's Healthy Vision Month!

‍

This is the perfect time to  focus on the importance of good eye health and proper eye care.

Having healthy eyes and good vision is essential for your everyday activities, from reading and driving to working and enjoying time with family and friends.

Remember to take care of your eyes, so that as you grow older - they can take care of you!

Here are 3 Quick Lifestyle Tips to keep your Eyes Healthy and protect your eyesight:

‍

1. Eat a Healthy Diet

‍Include plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet, especially those rich in vitamins A, C, and E. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, nuts, and seeds may also help prevent age-related vision problems.

‍

2. Protect Your Eyes

‍Wear protective eyewear when playing sports or doing activities that could cause eye injury, and sunglasses while outside in the sun. Use safety glasses or goggles when working with tools or during other dangerous activities.

‍

3. Give Your Eyes a Break

‍If you spend a lot of time looking at a computer or phone screen, take regular breaks to rest your eyes. Look away from the screen and focus on something in the distance to help reduce eye strain.

‍

Finally, remember to Schedule a Comprehensive Eye Examination with your optometrist.

Regular eye exams are important for maintaining good eye health and allow your eye doctor to ensure the best possible eye care and check for early signs of eye disease or other conditions that may affect your vision.
