During Healthy Vision Month, held each May, the National Eye Institute encourages Americans to make their eye health a priority and informs them about steps they can take to protect their vision:
- Get a comprehensive dilated eye exam.
- Live a healthy lifestyle, including eating healthy foods, maintaining a healthy weight, managing chronic conditions, and not smoking.
- Know your family history.
- Use protective eye wear.
- Wear sunglasses.
Taking these steps can help prevent vision loss or blindness from many eye diseases and conditions. In addition, comprehensive dilated eye exams can detect problems early, when they’re easier to treat.
Celebrate Healthy Vision Month by taking these steps today! You’ll help ensure your eyes are healthy and that you’re seeing well for a lifetime. We invite you to spread the word to your family, friends, colleagues and teammates.
