6 daily habits that destroys your vision|STREET DOCTOR
6 daily habits that destroys your vision|STREET DOCTOR

Cases of myopia (nearsightedness) are spiking, and glaucoma, cataracts, and other eye conditions are also on the rise.

One major culprit is screen use (phone, tablet, TV, laptop). But stress, poor nutrition, smoking, and obesity can also sap your sight.

In fact, anything that hurts your heart will strain your eyes. See clearly now and in the future by avoiding these mistakes

LOOKING AT SCREENS FOR A LONG TIME

Blue light from your devices may be linked to macular degeneration, an impairment of your central vision.

Plus, not blinking fully while staring at a screen can cause “computer vision syndrome”—dryness, pain, and fatigue.

Solution: Keep any screen at least 16 inches from your face, and bump up the text size

STRESS

The stress hormone cortisol can lead to impaired retinal function.

This can result in a condition known as central serous chorio-retinopathy (CSCR), a buildup of liquid that causes blurry vision.

Solution: Exercise and meditation can slash stress. Or rock out regularly: An hour at a live music event can lower cortisol levels by 25 percent, a U.K. study found.

READING TOO CLOSE TO YOUR FACE
The closer you hold something to your face—a phone, a book—the harder your eyes work. This strain may cause your eyeballs to elongate, possibly resulting in myopia.

Solution: Use the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, take a break and look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.

Look out a window if you can; broad vistas help your eyes relax.

BEING CLUMSY WITH YOUR EYE BALLS

Blunt trauma to the eye—say, from an errant ball or elbow—is the most common cause of vision loss in young men.

One nightmare is a detached retina, which can also result from any violent head movement—even an intense sneeze.

Solution: Wear protective glasses when you play sports. If you do take a hit and then notice spots or arcs of flashing light, head immediately to the ER.

SkIPPING LEAFY GREENS

Avoiding leafy greens means you miss out on nutrients, such as nitrates and lutein, that can help ward off glaucoma and macular degeneration.

Solution: Nitrates help promote blood flow to the retina.

A recent study found that people who eat 240 milligrams a day (a cup of spinach) are 30 percent less likely to develop glaucoma than greens haters.

CARRYING EXTRA WEIGHT AND SMOKING

If you’re a smoker, obese, or both, your risk of glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and other eye diseases skyrockets by as much as 300 percent.

Solution: Lose the extra weight (duh) and ditch the cancer sticks (double duh). Eating a diet that’s rich in fatty fish, fruits, and vegetables (especially those high in vitamin C and zinc) is beneficial for eye health.
