Summer Eye Care

Summer brings with it a whole bunch of infections and diseases. Eyes suffer from the scorching summer heat and they need protection. Eyes come under the attack of harmful ultraviolet rays and eyeglasses with UV protection are required to guard our eyes. Viral infections of the eye are common during summer. The eyes may get dry due to the heat and this will cause irritation and itching. Blinking is a natural phenomenon that will restore moisture content in the eyes. Conjunctivitis is a contagious infection that turns up at the onset of summer. Special attention and precautions must be taken to ensure that you don't handle stuff used by infected persons. A Stye is lump formation in the eye which may be due to stress or viral action. Personal hygiene and cleanliness will drive these infections away. Always wear a cap or use an umbrella when you go outdoors which will shield your eyes from the direct effect of sun. Make sure that you use only good quality eyeglasses from a top brand. Splash cold water on your face when your eyes get stressed out. Never hammer your eyes with strain by sitting in front of computer for a long time.
