PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTION NECESSARY TO PREVENT LOSS OF SIGHT

1. Essential to eat dark green leafy and red/yellow colour vegetables (spinach, tomatoes, carrots) and fruits as they are rich in Vitamin 'A'.
2. Keep eyes clean and free from flies.
3. Immunise against measles.
4. Take precautions against conjunctivitis.

GOOD NUTRITION AND CLEANLINESS KEEP EYES HEALTHY AND CAN PREVENT BLINDNESS.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR CARE OF YOUR EYES

  • Wash eyes and face with clean water. If dirt, sand or foreign matter enters the eye, get a nurse or doctor to clean it. When eyes are red or sticky with pus, get them cleaned very carefully.
  • Take adequate precautions to prevent ailments affecting eyes e.g. Conjunctivitis and measles.
  • Watch TV from distance of 3 meters.
  • Pregnant women should be screened thoroughly with the help of pathology test to detect any carrier infection or condition of diabetes as these conditions may cause blindness in the child the mother has conceived.
  • Early medical intervention is best to restore sight in case of preventable blindness.
