How can students take care of their eyes?
  • August is observed as Children's Eye Health and
    Safety Month to remind you that there arent any
    excuses or shortcuts in maintaining the healthy
    eyesight of children. As your child is back to
    school, their busy academic life will be putting
    great demand on the functioning of brains, eyes
    and the coordination of both. The vision demands
    of students are unique, so their eyes require
    special care to ensure that they are seeing great
    throughout the academic year. Students have to be
    especially careful about many potential
    vision-related problems that can affect anyone,
    anytime.
  • During this Childrens Eye Health and Safety
    Month, it is important to make students aware
    that eye health and safety is as much important
    as getting regular eye checkup near me. Students
    should understand how to prevent eye infections
    and injuries and how eyes and vision can be
    impacted by overall health habits.

Reduce Screen Time
  • Todays educational system demands students to
    spend long hours on smartphones, tablets and
    computers reading books or textbooks which poses
    an increased risk of digital eyestrain than when
    reading from a printed page. Many students are
    also spending time on gaming consoles for an
    extended period of time which can lead to
    computer vision syndrome.
  • Minimal screen time can help prevent symptoms of
    Computer Vision Syndrome such as eyestrain,
    headaches, blurry vision and dry eyes. Students
    can ensure adequate sleep and physical activity
    by reducing the amount of screen time and
    avoiding screen time before bed. Students who are
    needed to engage in screen time for a long time
    should follow the 20-20-20 rule of looking 20
    feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes.

Increase outdoor activities
  • Spending more time outdoors can not only be
    physically beneficial for students but prevents
    the onset and progression of vision problems like
    myopia. They should be encouraged to play outside
    rather than indoor games or video games.
  • Wear Eye protection
  • Students who are into sports and games can be at
    the risk of getting their eyes injured. Wearing
    UV protective filter sunglasses, helmets and
    sports goggles can help prevent 90 of eye
    injuries caused by UV radiation and physical
    causes. It is also important for students to wear
    swimming goggles while playing in the water and
    wear sports eye protectors while playing team
    sports like football, soccer and hockey.

Wear blue-light protective glasses
  • While updating the power of your eyeglass lens at
    the recommended intervals, LED blue light filters
    are also recommended for students to alleviate
    the effects of long-term exposure to digital
    screens. Blue-light protective eyeglasses can
    significantly reduce the retinal photodamage that
    can even result in chronic, long-term vision
    damage if exposure is high and long enough.
    Glasses that are specifically designed to filter
    out blue light from device screens can prevent
    the deterioration or breakdown of eye cells due
    to LED exposure. Many children's eye hospital in
    Ghaziabad has been including an LED blue light
    filter for the eyeglasses they prescribe for
    students. Those who are already wearing
    eyeglasses may visit the best children's eye care
    in Ghaziabad to get an LED blue light filter
    included in your prescription.

Schedule annual eye check ups
  • The most effective way to ensure healthy eyes for
    students is by scheduling their annual eye exam
    around the time when they are home from school
    for the holidays. Scheduling an annual eye
    checkup at a children's eye care near me may help
    determine vision problems in school and college
    students and protect their eyes. Annual eye
    examinations for students are more important than
    ever as the increased use of technology among
    students causes the eyes to age prematurely. This
    can increase the risk of early onset and
    progression of age-related macular degeneration
    and many other eyesight problems. An annual eye
    check is more necessary for students as early
    diagnosis and interventions could help protect
    their vision in most cases.
  • Students who have noticed worsening symptoms like
    red, stinging, watery or exhausted eyes should
    get their eye examination at the earliest
    regardless of the annual exam. Regular vision
    screening shouldnt be missed by students who
    have chronic illnesses or any history of
    pediatric eye diseases in the family. Seeing the
    best eye doctor in Ghaziabad can help students
    find relief and protection from vision problems.
