Our eyes remain one of the most beautiful parts of our body. The eyes are said by scientists to be the second most complicated body part, second only to the brain, of course!
The eyes, like the rest of our bodies, deserve to be pampered and cared for. Remember how we sometimes book spas and body massage sessions to ensure that our bodies look good and continue to feel good?
The eyes need to be subjected to such luxurious treatment occasionally too. Being specific about caring for your eyes also means showing them love. And so, for those who have made self-eye care a priority, how can you pamper your eyes?
Wear sunglasses
Did you know that ultraviolet rays can damage the eyes the same way they can harm the skin? Yes! In fact, every second you spend outside adds to the effect of accrued UV light damage. Prevent this by wearing sunglasses with UV light protection.
Wash your hands
If the past two years have taught us anything, it is the importance of handwashing. While everyone should wash their hands often, those who use contact lenses should be cautious. Also, people who touch their eyes easily should wash their hands frequently.
Filthy hands cause germs to stick to the ocular surface, eyelids, and contact lenses. A thorough cleaning should prevent the transfer. Hence, contact lens wearers should sanitize their hands properly or use gloves before handling the lenses.
Practice eye care
There is no doubt that our eyes are and will remain one of our most used body parts. The eyes, much like the rest of our bodies, can get tired and begin to wear out. And so, it is important to take proper care of them. When we take care of our bodies and daily needs, we should not ever factor out the eyes.
