Winter looks beautiful but it isn't always kind to our eyes!
As temperatures drop our eyes become more vulnerable to dryness, irritation, and increased sensitivity. Cold winds, low humidity, indoor heating and UV exposure from winter sun can all impact eye health.
So this winter protect your vision by:
- Staying hydrated.
- Using a good quality lubricating eye drop.
- Wearing UV-protected sunglasses even in cold weather.
- Avoiding direct exposure to heaters.
- Maintaining proper screen breaks to reduce dryness.
Healthy eyes are essential for productivity, comfort and overall well-being, so give them the care they deserve this season.
