The Eyes Are the Prize
（2025·重庆名校联考）We watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts. We exercise and take calcium to protect our bones. 1. But what can we do to protect our eyes? We asked experts what lifestyle steps people should be taking to protect their vision and eye health.
• Spring for some quality shades
“It is very important to protect the eyes from UV (紫外线的) light, which has been shown to have a harmful effect on the eyes,” says Esen Akpek, an ophthalmology (眼科学) professor at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “2. In fact, if the glasses are simply dark but not UV - protected, that's worse for your eyes. Do buy sunglasses that can block out 99% to 100% UV light.”
• Take a break from screens
While there's no scientific evidence that the light from electronic screens damages eyes, staring at a screen can leave eyes extremely tired. One of the reasons is that people tend to blink (眨眼睛) less during screen use. 3. The National Institutes of Health recommends taking a break every 20 minutes to look at something about 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
• 4.
First, smoking is terrible. It isn't just bad for your lungs; it can harm eyes too. “Smoking causes dry eyes, harms optic (视觉的) nerves and makes eye disease worse,” says Dr. Akpek. 5. “The more you rub, the more uncomfortable your eyes will get. It can lead to infections. Instead, take medication or use drops for allergies or dry eyes.”
