Happy Healthy Vision Month as May is known as vision month. Of course, taking care of your eyes should be a priority. A healthy vision can help keep your eye sight safe.
To get your eyes healthy, have a comprehensive eye exam with an eye care professional. It is important to have your eyes dilated to check for common vision problems and eye disease. By and large, having regular examinations it is easy to tell if there is a health problem or if you need glasses for everyday wear.
I’ve been having regular eye check-ups since I was in my twenties and have found that as I aged my vision has changed. I used to need glasses for night driving, but now need glasses more regularly for far distance.
Vision health is for all ages. Many preschoolers need glasses early on. Eye disease can cause vision loss and even blindness. Some conditions that can occur are:
- Cataracts – this is clouding of the eye.
- Diabetic retinopathy – this causes damage to the blood vessel in the back of your eye.
- Glaucoma – this is known to cause damage to the optic nerve.
- Age related macular degeneration – this gradually affects central vision.
With vision tests millions of people can see better by using corrective lenses or eye surgery. Taking care of your eyes will benefit your overall health.
The National Eye Institute empowers Americans to make their eye health a priority and helps educate them in ways to protect their vision. It is important to know your family history, live a healthy lifestyle, wear sunglasses while being outdoors, and have a eye exam.
During Healthy Vision Month, held each May, the National Eye Institute empowers Americans to make their eye health a priority and educates them about steps you can take to protect your vision.
