  2. Wear protective eyewear: When engaging in activities that could potentially harm the eyes, such as sports or using power tools, it is important to wear protective eyewear to help prevent injury.

  3. Use good lighting: Poor lighting can strain the eyes and cause discomfort. Use good lighting when reading, working, or engaging in other activities that require good vision.

  4. Take breaks: If you spend a lot of time staring at a computer screen or other digital device, it is important to take regular breaks to give your eyes a rest.

  5. Eat a healthy diet: A diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, and other nutrients can help to maintain good eye health.

  6. Wear sunglasses: Sunglasses can help to protect the eyes from harmful UV rays and reduce the risk of cataracts and other eye conditions.

  7. Quit smoking: Smoking can increase the risk of eye conditions such as cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. Quitting smoking can help to preserve eye health.

By following these tips, you can help to maintain good eye health and preserve your vision. If you are experiencing vision problems or other eye-related issues, it is important to see an eye care professional for evaluation and treatment.
