tips for your eyes
Jul 22 2008, 7:37 PM EDT Don’t use artificial tears that irritate your eyes. If one brand or prescription bothers you, try another. Nonpreserved drops are usually essential for long-term use. Practice blinking: You tend to blink less when reading or using the computer. Remember to blink 5 to 6 times a minute. Protect your eyes from drafts, breezes, and wind. Put humidifiers in the rooms where you spend the most time, including the bedroom, or install a humidifier in your heating and air conditioning unit. Don’t smoke, and stay out of smoky rooms. Apply mascara only to the tips of your lashes so it doesn’t get in your eyes. If you use eyeliner or eye shadow, put it only on the skin above your lashes, not on the sensitive skin under your lashes, close to your eyes. Avoid facial creams on the lower lid skin at bedtime if you are awakening with eye irritation. Ask your doctor whether any medications that you are taking contribute to dryness. If they do, ask how the dryness can be reduced. Do you find this valuable? |
