Instructions

• 1

  Quit smoking if you are a smoker. Smoking damages the eye, so this is one of the most healthy things you can do for your eyes. Cigarettes contain carbon monoxide which reduces the amount of available oxygen in the body. Smoking also reduces the amount of available potassium and other vital nutrients that the body needs to stay healthy.

• 2

  Drink alcohol only in moderation as it can disrupt your sleep which is damaging to your eyes over time. Find ways to relax without consuming alcohol such as meditation and exercise. This will help you sleep better and is a natural way to improve the health of your eyes.

• 3

  Eat food high in Lutein and Zeaxanthin, which are antioxidant pigments that reduce free radicals in the eyes. Foods high in these substances include kale, collard greens, spinach, lettuce and green turnips. Include these foods in your diet on a regular basis. One large bowl per day is enough to help the health of your eyes.

• 4

  Drink more water on a daily basis. Dehydration is hard on your entire body, not just your eyes. High quality water, such as distilled, purified and spring water, allows your body to process nutrients that your eyes need to stay healthy. High-quality water assists the body with nutritional absorption and other processes that keep you healthy. Drink 6 to 8 glasses per day and more if you are exercising or sweating a lot.

  Rest your eyes when using computers or other technology on a regular basis. Simply close your eyes and avoid stimulation for a few minutes every hour. Take deep breaths while doing this to aid in relaxation, which might help you sleep better at night.
