What Are Some Eye Health Tips To Protect My Vision?

What Are Some Eye Health Tips To Protect My Vision?

Don’t take your eyes for granted! We’ve got five top tips to keep your eyes in tip-top condition.

Don’t Use Devices Too Close
Keep computer screens at least an arm’s width away and 16 inches from a handheld device, such as a tablet, mobile or iPod. The glare of an electronic screen can lead to eyestrain, as well as headaches, blurred vision, neck pain, dry or red eyes, fatigue, double vision, and difficulty refocusing.

Use The 20/20/20 Rule
We blink about 15 to 20 times a minute, but that rate drops by half when we’re viewing text on a screen. If you don’t blink enough, the cornea can dry out and feel irritated. Every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds, so you can blink naturally and give your eyes time to relax.

Try Eating More Seafood
The omega-3 fatty acids in fish can help to decrease your risk of eye disease, as well as helping your heart and brain health!

Eat Your Vegetables
Dark, leafy greens such as broccoli, zucchini, peas, and Brussels sprouts are full of light absorbing nutrients such as letein and zeaxanthin, which reduce the effects of glare and exposure to bright lights.

Wear Sunglasses
Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection can massively help to protect your eyes from harmful UV light. It’s worth investing in some proper sunglasses, don’t expect a cheap pair to necessarily protect your eyes!

Dr Tappin and the team at LaserVision were amazing. I underwent Lasik corrective surgery and the process could not have been smoother. I was guided through the process with care and professionalism throughout. My results have been outstanding. I could not have asked for more from the team at LaserVision and I am truly grateful for my new vision.

Utterly professional and caring from start to finish. I was quite nervous about having laser but am so pleased with the results. There has always been someone to advise and support every step of the way and patient care and well being really is the priority here. Thank you for looking after me and my eyes so well.

Dr Jayaswal has been amazing and changed my life. He made me feel so comfortable and relaxed in his care at the first meet, to remembering me with a personalised greeting, calmly explaining the procedure and reassuring me all the way through the surgery. I couldn’t recommend him enough for Lasik eye surgery - I now have perfect vision, a real dream come true! Thank you so much!

I had lens replacement surgery. After being both short sighted and long sighted for decades I can now see near and far without glasses or contact lens. It really is amazing. The care was great and so far the recovery has been easy.

Amazing service from start to finish, I had LASIK surgery in August this year after years of consideration I finally took the plunge and went for the surgery with Mr Tappin. Mr Mike Tappin and his team were brilliant from the consultation right through to the surgery and aftercare. Mr Tappin and his team were very reassuring throughout the surgery and put me at ease every step of the way. If you are thinking about having laser eye treatment or at the start of your journey with it, I would highly recommend seeing Mr Tappin and his team!
