Healthy Eyes Tips - Protect Your Eyesight

Our eyes express our emotions and thoughts beautifully when words fail us. It’s our responsibility in turn to take care of them. In today’s world, with the work load and strenuous lifestyle, eyes have lost their natural beauty. You get dark circles, puffiness, redness, itchiness, wrinkles and what not. Even after waking up in the morning, your eyes look tired and dull because of the dark circles and under eye bags. Why spoil your delicate eye area with cosmetics?

1. Take short breaks: avoid spending or sitting long hours before computer rather take short breaks in between and relax.
2. Don’t rub your eyes: this is the common mistake done by many people when something entered your eye, instead take others help to get rid off.
3. Drinking more water helps: by drinking more water you can reduce the puffiness of your eyes and makes you feel relaxed as well.
4. Take care of your diet: make sure that your diet contains spinach, tomatoes, citrus fruits, vegetables and foods rich in vitamins A, C and E.
5. Follow eye exercises: I would like to suggest one best exercise where you have blink your eyes for few second and then close your eyes, roll your eyes (eye balls) in clockwise and anti-clockwise. Make sure you 
do this in between your work. Follow yoga and meditation.
