Tips For Maintaining Good Eyesight

EAT RIGHT

Foods high in omega-3 fatty acids and

vitamins C and E may help lower your risk

of macular degeneration or cataracts.

WEAR SUNGLASSES

When shopping for your next pair of sunglasses, look for 99-100% UVA and UVB protection.

THROW AWAY OLD MAKEUP

Replace your products every 3 months to

avoid developing an eye infection.

USE PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR An estimated 2.5 million eye injuries occur in the U.S. each year, so it's important to wear proper eyewear.

TAKE SCREEN BREAKS

Avoid eyestrain, neck and shoulder pain

and dry eyes by taking a break from your

screen every 20 minutes.

REGULAR EYE SCREENINGS

It's important to get your vision checked on a regular basis.

During the screening, your doctor may recommend you schedule an appointment with your ophthalmologist if they believe there's a potential vision problem.
