Looking After The Eyes

It is sensible not to abuse the eyes by reading or writing in a poor light, although doing so cannot cause damage. When possible, the light should be a little above and behind the shoulder. After reading steadily for a while, look up from the text and into the distance, this provide relief for tired eye muscles.

Eyedrops or ointments may provide relief for certain conditions, but do not use them unless a doctor considers them necessary.

Anyone who get headaches after reading or doing much close work should consult his doctor in case he needs glasses. Badly adjusted television or the stroboscopic lights used in discotheques may cause migraine headaches in susceptible people.
