How to prevent eye fatigue?

The eye is one of our important sensory organs. However, due to the long-term use of electronic equipment and environmental pollution in modern life, we are prone to eye fatigue. In order to protect eye health and prevent eye fatigue, the ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital provide the following suggestions:

Keep good eye habits

Good eye use habits are very important to prevent eye fatigue. First of all, we should maintain the correct posture of using our eyes, avoid the situation of lowering or raising our head for a long time, and should maintain the normal posture of the head and cervical spine. Secondly, when using electronic equipment for a long time, you should pay attention to doing appropriate eye relaxation exercises at regular intervals, such as looking far away from the screen, closing your eyes to rest, etc. In addition, it is also important to arrange work and rest time reasonably and ensure adequate sleep. Insufficient sleep will increase the risk of eye fatigue.

In addition, pay attention to the light adjustment of the environment, try to avoid exposure to dazzling light, and properly adjust the screen brightness and contrast can also reduce the burden on the eyes.

Pay attention to eye hygiene

Maintaining a hygienic environment around the eyes is also very important to prevent eye fatigue. First of all, we should pay attention to maintain good hygiene habits, wash hands frequently, and avoid eye infection. Secondly, keep the eyes clean every day. Gently clean the skin around the eyes with warm water. Be careful not to rub the eyes hard.

In addition, the use of expired or substandard eyedrops should be avoided, as inappropriate eyedrops may cause adverse effects on the eyes.

Balanced diet and supplementary nutrition

The health of eyes is closely related to diet. A balanced diet can supplement the nutrition needed by eyes, thus preventing eye fatigue. The ophthalmologists of Guangzhou Zhongshan Third Hospital suggested increasing the intake of foods rich in vitamin A, C, E and zinc, such as carrots, red peppers, spinach, almonds, etc. These foods can improve the blood circulation of the eyes, protect retinal cells, and alleviate the symptoms of eye fatigue.

Regular eye examination

Regular eye examination is one of the important measures to prevent eye fatigue. The ophthalmologists of the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou suggest that a comprehensive eye examination should be carried out at least once a year, especially for people who have used electronic equipment for a long time, are nearsighted or are older. Through eye examination, eye diseases can be found and treated as soon as possible to avoid aggravating visual problems caused by fatigue.

In short, to prevent eye fatigue, we need to start with good eye habits, eye hygiene, balanced diet and regular eye examinations. The ophthalmologists of the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou, remind us that the protection of eye health needs to be adhered to for a long time, and more personalized preventive measures should be taken with the guidance of doctors to maintain good eyesight and eye health.
