Your eyes work hard every day—and just like the rest of your body, they benefit from daily care. At Drushti Eye Care, we believe that good vision doesn’t only depend on treatment—it starts with healthy habits. Here are a few simple things you can do each day to protect and even improve your eyesight over time.
1. Eat Eye-Friendly Foods
Your diet plays a big role in eye health. Include foods rich in vitamin A, C, E, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids to support vision and prevent age-related eye problems.
✅ Try: Carrots, spinach, oranges, almonds, eggs, and fatty fish like salmon.
2. Practice the 20-20-20 Rule
Staring at screens for long periods can strain your eyes. Follow this simple rule:
Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
It relaxes your eye muscles and prevents digital eye strain.
3. Stay Hydrated
Dry eyes are a common issue, especially in air-conditioned or heated environments. Drinking enough water helps maintain tear production and keeps your eyes moist and comfortable.
💧 Aim for 6–8 glasses of water daily.
4. Get Enough Sleep
Your eyes need rest, just like your body. A good night’s sleep helps reduce eye fatigue, dryness, and puffiness.
🛌 Try to get 7–8 hours of quality sleep every night.
5. Blink More Often
We tend to blink less when using screens, which can dry out the eyes. Make a conscious effort to blink regularly, especially during long screen sessions.
6. Wear Sunglasses Outdoors
UV rays can damage your eyes just like your skin. Protect your vision by wearing sunglasses with 100% UV protection, even on cloudy days.
🕶️ It helps prevent cataracts, macular degeneration, and sun-related irritation.
7. Avoid Smoking
Smoking increases the risk of vision problems like cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. If you smoke, quitting is one of the best things you can do for your eyes—and your overall health.
8. Keep Your Hands and Lenses Clean
Touching your eyes with dirty hands or wearing unclean contact lenses can lead to infections. Always wash your hands before touching your eyes and follow proper lens care instructions.
9. Schedule Regular Eye Exams
Even if you don’t wear glasses, regular check-ups can detect problems early—before they affect your vision.
