If you’re used to making New Year’s resolutions around fitness or finance, it might seem strange to focus on your eyes. But remember, your vision is key to enjoying and experiencing much of life’s simple pleasures. Read on as Insight Vision Center Optometry lists five of the best resolutions to keep your eyes healthy throughout the year.
1. Regular Eye Checkups
One of the best ways to protect your vision is to have regular checkups with eye doctors. Your eye doctor can identify any potential problems early, which can help prevent severe eye problems. Aim to schedule a checkup once a year to keep your eyes in tip-top shape.
2. Protection Against Screen Time
We live in a digital world and screen time is continually rising. However, prolonged exposure can damage eye health, leading to digital eye strain or other vision issues. Counteract this by taking regular breaks from screens and practicing good screen hygiene.
3. Corrective Measures and Treatments
If you need glasses or contact lenses, don’t shy away from them. Incorporating them into your daily routine can greatly improve your eyesight. If you’re interested in a longer-lasting solution, consider ortho-k. It’s a non-surgical procedure that can help correct your vision while you sleep.
4. Quitting Smoking for Eye Health
If you’re a smoker, here’s one more reason to quit: smoking can dramatically damage your sight over time. Make it a resolution to quit this year or cut down as much as possible if quitting is not feasible.
5. Healthy Diet
Your diet can significantly impact your eye health. Fill your plate with foods rich in vitamins A and C, such as leafy greens, bell peppers, and citrus fruits, to help maintain good eye health.
