Ways to protect your eyesight

It has to be said that the number of myopic patients in our country is increasing every year, and the age of myopia patients is gradually getting younger. Many of these patients were already myopic when they were in the first or second grade of elementary school. Therefore, protecting eyesight has become one of the most concerned issues for many parents. Only by taking various preventive measures can the occurrence of myopia be prevented fundamentally. So what are the ways to protect your eyesight?

In fact, the methods of protecting eyesight are not complicated. Eye exercises are one of the most common methods. In addition, as long as you pay a little attention to the time, posture, distance, etc. when reading, writing, and looking at the computer, you can effectively avoid the occurrence of myopia.

Ways to protect your eyesight

1. The simplest way to protect your eyesight is to do eye exercises. Eye exercises can eliminate eye fatigue, protect your eyesight and prevent myopia.

2. Avoid reading or writing under strong light. Strong light will hurt your eyes, but the light should also be sufficient and comfortable. If the light is too weak, the font cannot be seen clearly, and your myopia will increase.

3. To protect your eyesight, you must also ensure adequate sleep and a regular work and rest schedule, because lack of sleep can easily lead to fatigue and cause pseudomyopia.

4. Avoid looking directly at the sun at noon. The sun is too strong and can hurt your eyes and cause bad vision.

5. Do not watch TV programs, operate computers or play electronic games for a long time, as these are very bad for your eyesight.

6. The time spent reading or writing should not be too long. You should take a break every 50 minutes or so, stretch yourself, or go to the window to look at the green plants in the distance.

7. Participate in more outdoor activities and look into the distance often in the wild to relax the eye muscles and prevent myopia. Having more contact with nature and green mountains and green fields are also beneficial to the health of the eyes.

8. If your eyes are tired, do not rub your eyes with your hands, because your hands may contain a lot of bacteria, which can easily enter the eyes and cause eye diseases. If your eyes are tired, just close your eyes and rest for a while and you will feel much better.

9. Pay attention to balanced nutrition and avoid picky eating. You can eat some eye-improving foods in moderation, such as animal liver, or fruits and vegetables containing vitamin A. Foods like oranges, grapes, lemons, bananas, bean sprouts, carrots and tomatoes can effectively protect eyesight.

10. When reading or writing, you should sit upright. Do not hunch your back, sit too close to the book, or lie down while reading or writing. This can easily cause excessive tension in the ciliary muscles and lead to fatigue, which in turn causes myopia.

11. If you sit in front of a computer for a long time at work, how should you protect your eyesight during work? You can deliberately put some necessary documents a little further away from the computer desk. If needed, you can get up and get them. Avoid sitting in front of the computer for a long time, which will affect your eyesight. Or you can get up and chat with colleagues or have a cup of tea when you are not busy, which are all very effective in protecting your eyesight.

Regarding methods of protecting eyesight, the simplest method is to ensure adequate sleep. Also, do not overuse your eyes for a long time. It is best to take a break every hour, stretch your waist, or go to the window to look at the green plants in the distance. This can relax the eye muscles, relieve eye fatigue, and fundamentally protect our eyesight.
