Focus on Eye Care​

Dear Tea Lovers,

At Teas.ng, we believe in the power of holistic wellness, and this month, we’re focusing on something incredibly vital—eye care. Our eyes are our windows to the world, and yet, they are often overlooked in our daily wellness routines. Let’s dive into understanding how we can better care for our eyes and how some specially curated teas can support your eye health.

Common Habits That Harm Your Eyes

1. Prolonged Screen Time: Whether it’s working on a computer, scrolling through your phone, or binge-watching your favorite shows, excessive screen time can lead to digital eye strain, characterized by dry eyes, headaches, and blurred vision.

2. Not Wearing Sunglasses:* Exposure to UV rays can damage the eyes, leading to conditions like cataracts and macular degeneration. Make it a habit to wear UV-protective sunglasses whenever you’re outside.

3. Poor Diet: A diet lacking in essential nutrients can affect your eye health. For instance, deficiencies in vitamins A, C, and E, along with omega-3 fatty acids, can lead to various eye conditions.

4. Rubbing Your Eyes: This common habit can cause microabrasions on the cornea and increase the risk of infection. It’s best to avoid touching your eyes unless your hands are clean.

5. Smoking: Smoking increases the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, and optic nerve damage.

Tips for Taking Care of Your Eyes

1. 20-20-20 Rule: To reduce eye strain, follow the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away.

2. Healthy Diet: Incorporate foods rich in vitamins and antioxidants, such as leafy greens, carrots, fish, and nuts. These nutrients are crucial for maintaining good eye health.

3. Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water helps maintain the moisture balance in your eyes, preventing dryness and irritation.

4. Regular Eye Exams: Even if you don’t wear glasses or contacts, regular eye exams can help detect problems early and ensure your eyes are healthy.

5. Proper Lighting: Ensure your workspace is well-lit to avoid straining your eyes. Natural light is best, but if that’s not possible, consider using a desk lamp.
