  2. One of the most important parts of your face is your eyes. They allow you to function well. They let you to see the world and appreciate scenic places. They even let you enjoy good books. Sometimes, however, you take them for granted. If your vision is blurred and you are having frequent headaches, see an optometrist. If you have no clue on what optometrists are and what they do, read on.

  3. What are Optometrists? Optometrists are also known as ophthalmic opticians. They are licensed medical professionals trained to prescribe corrective contact lenses or glasses as well as diagnose and treat eye diseases through medications. They specialise in many vision therapies to treat eye abnormalities and in some states, perform laser surgery. Before treating a patient, they conduct an eye test to determine the root of the problem. Most countries regulate the practice of optometry education. Optometrists usually interact with government agencies, health care professionals and communities to deliver good vision care.

  4. What Optometrists want you to know Here are some useful vision care tips you should keep in mind: - Have an eye test twice a year An optometrist can detect any symptom of eye disease through eye tests. Eye tests also help them determine the best form of protection as well as treatment for your eyes. -Wear sunglasses outdoors Your eyes are fragile so it is recommended that you wear sunglasses for protection. You should not bear with the strong glare of the sun by squinting-that does not protect them from the harsh UV radiation. It is harmful even on cloudy days. Buy yourself sunglasses with anti-reflective coating to prevent glare and lens reflections.

  5. - Have a balanced diet and drink plenty of water What's good for your body is probably good for your eyes as well. Monitor your diet and keep a close watch over Remember that a diet rich in anti-oxidants and omega oils can prevent you from having dry eyes and macular degeneration. -Give your eyes a break Do not spend time doing activities that can be stressful for your eyes. For example, go for a short walk between breaks so you do not spend all day staring at the computer screen. Keep your eyes well rested by looking around every two or three minutes. Don't focus on gadgets for awhile and let your eyes relax.

  6. You should blink often to moisten your eyes and avoid irritation. You should also keep your distance from the television and computer screen. See your optometrist if your eyes feel sore and red and get an eye test to treat your eye problems.
