Tips for caring ur eyes....for computer users!

Post by mariakhan » May 07, 2007 Views: 5179

Take care of your "delicate" eyes.

This info' is sure to help PC users very much.
During a recent visit to an optician, one of my friends was
told of an exercise for the eyes by a specialist doctor in the US that he
termed as 20-20-20." It is apt for all of us, who spend long hours at our
desks,looking at the computer screen.

I Thought I'd share it with you. 20-20-20
Step I :-

After every 20 minutes of looking into the computer screen,
turn your head and try to look at any object placed at least 20 feet
away. This changes the focal length of your eyes, a must-do for the tired
eyes.
Step II :-

Try and blink your eyes for 20 times in succession, to moisten
them.
Step III :-

Time permitting of course, one should walk 20 paces after every
20 minutes of sitting in one particular posture. Helps blood circulation
for the entire body.

your eyes r mirror of your soul, so do take care of them, they are
priceless............

Carrots are loaded with beta carotene, which is especially helpful in maintaining healthy eyes. That's because beta carotene is an antioxidant that reduces the risk of macular degeneration.

Eat broccoli, bell peppers, and brussels sprouts. These veggies are also great for your eyes because they contain lots of vitamin C. Okay, they're not the greatest tasting vegetables in the world (or maybe you love them, in which case good for you!) so dip them in hummus or other yummy yogurt spreads to make them taste better.

Eat sweet potatoes and spinach. Sweet potatoes and spinach round out the healthy veggie options for maintaining good eyes. Both contain beta carotene, and spinach contains lots of vitamin C, lutein, and zeaxanthin. Make the sweet spuds into home-fries with a bit of olive oil, and make spinach into a tasty side or a delectable dip.

Eat fish that contains omega-3 fats or take a supplement. Wild salmon and sardines are also healthy options for your eyes. That's because they contain omega-3 fats, which are the good fats for your body. These omega-3s protect tiny blood vessels in the eyes.
