People say the Eyes are window to our soul. It is a gift of sight. You are lucky and blessed if you have a nice pair of eyes. But do you know how to take care of your eyes?

There are a lot of tips you can find on the net about taking good care of our eyes. But it will only work if you follow those tips. If you love to read, make sure you adjust the way you hold your book or magazine facing the light. The quality of light affects our eyes so don't read if it's too dim or you don't have enough light. If you're working in front of a computer or monitor for a 8 hours, try to rest your eyes for a couple of minutes. Take a nap during break, a five minute nap will do. Glancing on other things in your surroundings will de-stress your eyes. If you want to wash your face, try not to wet your eyes. You can use a clean cloth or cotton to wipe dirt or oil on your eyes. Or better yet, close your eyes for 5 minutes before you wash your face. You can take breathing exercise too while closing your eyes. It works especially to women who wear make-up.

Vegetables especially carrots and squash are good source of beta-carotene which is good for our eyes. Green-leafy vegetables are good too. So good food and effort to take care our eyes is equal to perfect vision. An eight hour sleep will make us alert and in good mood when we wake up. And don't forget to use sun-glasses when going out, even it's not sunny, there will be dust that can irritate out eyes.

I hope anyone who reads this blog will find it helpful and interesting. For all we know it is hard to be blind. Our eyes are gift from above.................
