New Delhi: Due to increasing pollution in the winter season, the mixture of smog, fog and smoke increases in the atmosphere. Due to this, there are many problems in the eyes. Eye specialists said that for eye-related problems, if we say that the time after Diwali is the worst time, then it will not be wrong. Know how to keep eyes safe in pollution and cold.
Keep the body hydrated to keep the eyes healthy. According to the eye specialist, drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water a day keeps moisture in the eyes and there is no problem of dryness. Smog increases the chances of inflammation in our eyes which is reduced by drinking water.
If you are going out for any work, wear shades or glasses to protect the eyes. Especially if you step out of a two-wheeler, it is necessary to wear shades.
Some people have a habit of rubbing the eyes unnecessarily amid fatigue. This should not be done as it can damage the lens and cornea of the eye.
You can use eye drops to keep moisture in the eyes. You can contact your doctor for this.
After the work is over, keep a distance from cell phones-laptops etc. unless necessary. Seeing laptop and mobile screens throughout the day causes dryness in the eyes and then it starts to hurt.
