How often do you think about your eye health? This month, make your vision a priority! As we enter the summer months, it’s helpful to remember how to take care of your eyes when you spend time outdoors.
Get an Eye Exam
If you’ve never had eye trouble, your eye health might not be on the top of your mind. But, consistently seeing your eye doctor can help monitor any issues and catch problems early on.
UV Protection
Wearing sunglasses is crucial to protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays that can increase the chances of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration.
Polarizing Sunglasses
Polarizing sunglasses help knock down glare and intense light. These can be eye savers if you are on the lake, out on the ocean, or sitting by the beach.
Swim Goggles
It’s fun to open your eyes under the water, but it’s not always the best thing to do for your eyes. Next time, invest in some goggles so you get crystal clear views while you snorkel or while you look at your feet in the pool.
