When I was in high school I really
want to wear eye glasses although I have 20/20 vision or clear vision still the
likeness of wearing clear glasses or even fake glasses still strong. For me it looks cool and projects intellectual
look and I feel that I belong if I am wearing one although I am really not that
intelligent. But as I grew older and
became mature my idea of wearing eye glasses at young age changed from projects
intellectually into looking old.
It was first quarter last year
when I really need to wear eye glasses to correct my vision. I used to wear one before if I’m in front of
the computer to protect my eyes from radiation. I refuse to see ophthalmologist
to have my eyes check, I don’t want to wear eye glasses anymore but I can’t
avoid it. I often have headache and dizziness
due to staying long hours in computer because of my work. I got my first eye glasses in Acebedo OpticalClinic for only P1000, it’s on sale during that time and there are lot of eye
glasses to choose from. They offer free
eye check-up and all you need to do is to choose the frame that you like.
When I am inside the eye clinic waiting,
before me was another patient younger than me.
I can’t help noticing that more and more kids these days have vision
problems. Some kids can’t avoid wearing
eye glasses at their younger age because they inherit it to their parents. Genetic is one major factor of having vision
problem. But aside from genetic, food
that we eat, watching too much and too close in front of television and staying
long hours in front of computer are I believe other major factors that affect
having vision problem. Diabetic causes blind spots and distortion too.
Kids
these days are not involved more in outdoor activities compared to older
generations. Technology plays major role
in our kids’ lifestyle. I often see kids
watching videos, surfing internet, and playing online games thru different
gadgets from big to small like computer, laptop, tablet, PlayStation, Gameboy,
smartphones etc..
To
prevent early vision problem to my kids I only let them watch television or
play in the computer for just an hour or maximum of two hours if they are
watching movie, after that I involved them to other activities like solving
puzzle, playing or strolling. I also warn my kids not to stay close to television
while watching, and told them not to wash their eyes after watching. And most important is to have an eye check-up
for your kids you may visit any Acebedo Optical Clinic for free eye check-up. Also
have a healthy diet. Eat green leafy vegetables and fish. Foods rich in
Vitamins A, C, and E are important for the prevention of vision problems.
