How Eye Health Has Deteriorated In Modern Times

By Candace Hubbs

Maintaining optimum eye health can be achieved by ensuring the eyes get regular exercise and have access to a nutritious diet. As with the rest of the body, visiting an eye specialist physician should form a regular part of your annual schedule.

You will enjoy good nutrition for eyes if you observe a balanced diet. Today, the term 'balanced diet' has come to be represented by a fare of supermarket staples. If you do get lots of vegetable, fruit and fish products from the supermarket, you will have a varied diet but you may still not enjoy optimum health or excellent eyesight. This is because most supermarket food, although bright and fresh looking is not as power packed nutritionally as it may look.

The problem is that supermarket food is often contained in very persuasive packaging. You may feel that you are getting lots of omega 3's in your diet because you regularly purchase the most expensive brand of fish fingers that has 'OMEGA 3' printed boldly on the outer packaging. It is true that eye health is promoted by sufficient supplies of omega fatty acids but to get enough, your diet today must be more than balanced, it must be power packed. You should include good quality fish oil in bottled or capsule form. Otherwise, you could settle permanently by a lake where you have abundant supplies of freshwater fish that you can catch and enjoy lightly cooked, every day.

Like the rest of the body, good eye health depends a lot on exercise. If we lead mainly indoor, sedentary lifestyles, our eyes do not get much exercise. Unlike, the past when people peered into the distance to check for enemies, today the furthest we look is at a book, computer or TV screen. Even with driving, everything is close at hand from license plates to direction signs to traffic signals. One exercise is to regularly look into the distance and see what you can see.

Good eye health is enhanced by regular trips to the optician. You will undergo routine eye tests which exercise the eyes and also warn of any problems. Early treatment can mean the difference between the best possible visionary experience and a lifetime of blurry images. - 17269
