6 Things That Could Affect Your Eye Health

You don’t protect your eyes while you work in your garden

Health experts say that one of the most common mistakes that people always make is not using eye protection, such as glasses, while they work in their garden. Studies have shown that many work accidents affect people’s eyes, so protection is the most important thing when doing physical work, such as gardening, construction or repairing yard objects.

Satish Modi, a board-certified ophthalmologist at Seeta Eye Care in New York, says that “performing yard work and other tasks where it is possible for something to damage the eye without eye protection can lead to serious injuries.” 

“Simply wearing durable safety glasses when performing maintenance tasks can make all the difference for your eyesight,” he added.
