Protect your Vision


DON'T FORGET TO BLINK

We normally blink 15 to 20 times a minute, but the rate drops while viewing a screen. If you don't blink often enough, the cornea can dry out, and irritate you. Use the 20/20/20 rule while looking at any screen. Every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds so you can blink naturally.


CLEAN UP YOUR MAKE-UP :
       
         Toss that tube pr mascara after three months since it could be harbouring bacteria. Sharpen your eyeliner regularly. Line the base of your lashes but beware of applying liner inside the lash line. it could block the oil glands that protect the eye surface


GREEN TEA : 

      Replace chai with green tea during your mid-afternoon office break. It contains catechins, which are among a host of antioxidants. Reseachers from the Chinese University of Hong Kong have found that catechins are absorbed in the highest concentration by the tissues in the retina, the part of the eye that detects light.

REDUCE PAIN

SUNLIGHT TO REDUCE PAIN 


    The Closed-room-air-conditioned workplace relives us from the excruciating heat, but also deprives us of sunlight - a natural and potent source of vitamin D3, a nutrient that is essential for the growth of healthy shock- absorbing joint cartilage and for preventing painful inflammation inside muscles and joints.




    The lack of vitamin D3 causes bone pain, especially in the pelvic, back and thigh region. But doctors say exposure (without sunscreen) can cut your risk of developing joint pain by 67 %. Exposing yourself to the sun can also slow the progression of arthritis, and erase muscle aches within three months.


     However, if you're rarely outdoors, cod liver oil supplements and consuming multivitamin tablets that include 800-1000 units of vitamin D3 can also prove to be beneficial.
