Myths About Your Eyes And Vision

So much has been said about how great eating carrots is for your eyes. While it does contain Vitamin A, which helps promote good eyesight, it’s not exclusive to carrots. If you like carrots, that’s good. But understand that if you’re already getting enough Vitamin A from other foods, eating carrots won’t make much difference. That is, at least, where your eyes are concerned.

We often see parents get upset when they see their kids so near the TV. Sitting mere inches from the screen can cause eye strain and can even make your head hurt. But that’s the extent of the risks. Your child may be near-sighted and is just trying to get a better view. The best way to address this is to schedule a check-up.

The same goes for reading in a dark room. It has unpleasant side effects, but they’re temporary. Of course, if you can read in a bright area, that would be ideal. At the very least, invest in a gadget for reading with a paper-like screen. Most dedicated e-readers have this feature, which will reduce the likelihood of getting eye strain.
