SUMMER SAFETY TIP

Summer season is here and it can take a serious toll on your eyes, unless you care for them properly. Eye specialists say that there are many ways this season can affect your eyes. Excessive outdoor heat can create a lot of strain on your eyes which can lead to dry eyes and itching. Going outdoors without sun-protection glasses, will cause you to crinkle up your eyes to see better which can leads to wrinkles. It also ruins your look as the makeup runs into the eyes.

Below are a few ways tips to protect your eyes during the hot Indian summer.

	Always play outdoor sports wearing protective glasses: Doctors say that when playing outdoors sports it is always best to wear protective polycarbonate eyewear and also sun-protection glasses. Getting hit in the eye is also something that you need to save yourself from.
	Care for your eyes if you wear contact lenses: Harm to your eyes can be irreversible if you don't take proper care. Doctors insist that following all guidelines given by your ophthalmologist is essential. If you are not careful, contact lenses worn for long can permanently harm eyes. Use a fresh batch of lenses and make sure that you clean them thoroughly every time.
	Avoid rubbing eyes vigorously: Being extremely gentle when it comes to your eyes is the wisest thing to do say doctors. Vigorous rubbing won't get rid of eye debris, rather blinking will cause tears to flow which can wash out the debris. Rubbing will break and tear the cornea which might lead to infections.
	Use eye makeup properly: Don't hold on to eye makeup that is more than three to four months old. And avoid using fingers to wear eye makeup because bacteria on your fingertips will get transferred to the make-up palette and later cause infections in your eyes.
