Your Eye Health Is Important:



For most of us eye health is like a jargon. Dental health and other health issues are addressed immediately as it has a physical effect on our body but for eyes we procrastinate to get it checked regularly. As per my personal experience we tend to overlook symptoms of eye problem thinking that it’s a minor headache or try to avoid using prescription eyeglasses and avoid visiting a doctor. We only visit the doctor’s office only when the pain gets severe.

We forget that our eyes go through maximum exertion throughout the day, causing irritation on eyes, puffiness, itching and aching. These symptoms should not be overlooked as it may ultimately damage your eyes. Here are some useful information’s on how to take care of your eye health.

1.      Regular eye checkup:

Regular eye checkup once a year is a must if you are suffering from vision disorder; and once in two years is a must if you do not have any vision related issues. With regular eye checkup you will not only get your prescription updated but will also be aware of any other eye problems like dry eyes, allergies and other eye related issues which will definitely help you get relief from other vision related problems. Computer vision syndrome is another vision related problem that many of us are unaware of but these issues can be diagnosed with regular eye checkup.

2.      Protecting your eyes:

Eyes are sensitive and protecting your eyes from sun and dust is as important as protecting your skin from these. We use sun protection lotions whenever we are engage in outdoor activity as sun burn is evident but we overlook protecting our eyes as problems are not evident but generally when our eyes are exposed to bright sunlight, we generally get headache and feel fatigue.

Prescription Sunglasses protect our eyes from UV rays and decreases the light intensity that penetrates our eyes thus offers a cool vision even on a bright sunny day. It is also proven that sunglasses protect our eye from a common eye disease like cataract. The major cause of cataract is the UV rays and if we use sunglasses regularly, we will be able to prologue causing cataract.

3.      Proper rest to your eyes:

Like rest of your body your eyes also need rest and there are few home based remedies that you can follow to pamper your eyes. Proper sleep is one of the major factors. If you work long hours on computer it is advisable that you take proper precautions and rest while working on computer else it will lead to computer vision syndrome.

Once a while, you can pamper your eyes by cold compression. To do so you can use a tea bag submerged in cold water. Place the wet tea back on your eyes and leave it for one to two minutes. Repeat the process for two to three times. This will help your eyes to re-hydrate and protect your eyes from allergies and dryness.

4.      Healthy diet:

Though it is clinically proven but it is said that few vegetable and fruits help your eyes. Eating right not only help protect your eyes but will overall help you stay fit and healthy.

Purchasing prescription eyeglasses online:

Yesterday I was just reading through few blog’s and I came across one article which says “Best online glasses” The editor mentioned that he use to work for industry and recommended that you need to be careful while searching for eyeglasses online. He specially focused on cheap prescription eyeglasses online and cheap glasses do not last long. He has also mentioned that the frames and the lenses that used are of cheap imported quality and the lenses are of low quality but I am not too sure what he actually means. I have been in optical business for more than 10 years and have worked for one of the reputed online retailer for 4 years and as per my experience this has not been the case.

To focus on cheap quality imported frames well as per my experience there are only 2 types of frames designer frames and non branded frames. The only difference of these 2 frames are one has a brand name and the quality of course will be perfect as compared to high price and then next lot is Non-Branded frames. Non branded frames are much cheaper than the branded frames. Material will be the same just that the finishing will be a concern but compared to the price you are paying it is good so I actually do not understand what cheap quality imported frames are??

Moving onto low optical quality lenses. Most of the online retailers use branded lenses like Essilor and Zeiss however there are some stock lenses that they use. Before delivering the glasses the lenses pass through several tests where the prescription accuracy and other tests like UV protection is tested for the lenses. If a lenses of Essilor and non branded lenses have the same results under what basis has he mentioned low optical quality lenses?

To tell you frankly I have been wearing glasses which are sold at $6.48 online for the past 6 months and I have had no problem with the eyeglass frame or the lenses. If you are looking to buy prescription eyeglasses at reasonable price do think of opticstoreonline.com we offer large variety of prescription eyeglasses and prescription sunglasses.

What is 20/20 vision?


20/20 vision is a term used to express normal vision (the clarity or sharpness of vision) from a distance of 20 feet. If you have a 20/20 vision it means if stand 20 feet away from the vision chart you can see what the "normal" human being can see. In other words, you vision is normal.

If you have a 20/40 vision, it means that when you stand 20 feet away form the vision chart you can see what a normal person can see from 40 feet away. Higher the denominator value weaker is your eye.

You can also have vision that is better than normal. A person can have a 20/10 vision, which means that what he can see from 20 feet away, a normal person can see it at a distance of 10 feet from the chart.

Some people can see well at a distance, but are unable to bring nearer objects into focus. This condition can be caused by hyperopia (farsightedness) or presbyopia (loss of focusing ability). Others can see items that are close, but cannot see those far away. This condition may be caused by myopia (nearsightedness).
