The beginning of the year is a great time to hit the reset button on poor health habits:\u00a0 here are four resolutions you can make to have healthier eyes in 2021:<\/h3>\r\n1. Resolution One: I\u2019ll eat a healthy diet and exercise.<\/a> <\/strong><\/h3>\r\nYour eyes need a sufficient amount of vitamins and minerals in order to function properly. In particular, vitamins A, C and E along with omega-3 can help to keep your eyes healthy.<\/h3>\r\nSmoking and excessive alcohol consumption can have a negative impact on your vision and may increase your risk of eye diseases.<\/h3>\r\nMake it a goal to incorporate at least 30 minutes of exercise into your everyday routine. Healthy weight and normal blood pressure levels are key to improving your overall health, including your eyes.<\/h3>\r\nHydration for your eyes (8 cups of water each day): dry eyes feel awful, especially if you wear contact lenses, but, did you know that drinking water can help you defeat dry eye.<\/h3>\r\n2. Resolution Two: I\u2019ll take screen breaks. <\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\r\nOur lives revolve around screens, and all this screen time is hard on the eyes. Vow to take breaks and look away from your screen every 20 minutes for at least 20 seconds and stare at something far away (at least 20 feet).\u00a0 This is called the 20-20-20 rule and it can help prevent digital eye strain.<\/h3>\r\n3. Resolution Three: I\u2019ll always wear my sunglasses.<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\r\nNo matter the season, if the sun\u2019s shining your eyes are subject to harmful UVA & UVB rays that can harm your vision and put you at greater risk for eye diseases such as cataracts and macular degeneration.\u00a0 Protect your eyes with great sunglasses with ophthalmic quality lenses, guaranteed to block those rays.
