About Women's Eye Health and Safety Month
Women , United States
Ends: Apr 30, 2024
DESCRIPTION:
Women's Eye Health and Safety Month occurs each April.
Two-thirds of blindness and visual impairment occurs in women, which means women are 50 percent more likely than men to become victims of blindness and image problems. Women's Eye Health and Safety Month seeks to bring attention to this issue which in many cases can be mitigated or avoided through living a healthful lifestyle, protecting eyes from injury, and getting regular dilated-eye exams.
The month also focuses on healthy eating. Several studies have suggested that specific vitamins and other nutrients may reduce vision loss. Carotenoids such as lutein and zeaxanthin provide some eye protection and are found in dark, leafy greens, egg yolks, broccoli, and several yellow/orange vegetables. Omega-3 fats also may be essential for eye health and can be found in walnuts, certain fish, and flax.
Staying active also can improve your eye and overall health. Regular, moderate physical activity can reduce your risk of developing problems that can lead to eye disease.
The CDC recommends the following nine actions to protect your eyes:
1) Know your family's eye health history. It's important to know if anyone has been diagnosed with an eye disease or condition since many are hereditary.
2) Eat right to protect your sight—in particular, eat plenty of dark leafy greens such as spinach, kale, or collard greens, and fish high in omega-3 fatty acids such as salmon, albacore tuna, trout, and halibut.
3) Maintain a healthy weight.
4) Wear protective eyewear when playing sports or doing activities around the home, such as painting, yard work, and home repairs.
5) Quit smoking or never start.
6) Wear sunglasses that block 99 percent-100 percent of ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation.
7) Clean your hands before taking out your contacts, and cleanse your contact lenses properly to avoid infection.
8) Practice workplace eye safety.
9) Get regular comprehensive dilated eye exams.
