Traveller Eye Care Tips to Protect your Vision During your UK Trip

May 17, 2022 by admin Leave a Comment

After about two years of being isolated inside our homes for many weeks and getting used to social distancing, more and more people feel safe to travel again. It goes without saying that all travellers must obey hygiene and social distancing rules as the Covid-19 pandemic is still going on, it has not ended. 

Besides Covid, which has recently entered our lives, when travelling, you should also be mindful of your eyes. Our vision is something that most of us take for granted but we have to take pre-emptive steps in order to ensure that it remains impeccable. 

But how can you protect your vision when you are away exploring the UK? You will find four useful tips below. 

Tip 1: Go to an eye doctor if you don’t see well

The most important thing that you should keep in mind is that you should not hesitate to contact an eye doctor if you feel that there is something wrong with your vision. An eye surgeon in Southampton will be able to not only tell you what is wrong with them but also treat it either permanently or temporarily until you go back home and visit your personal optician.

Tip 2: Buy a good pair of sunglasses

Sunglasses have been an essential summer accessory. However, the style of the sunglasses should not be the sole criterion when buying this eyes-protecting product. Before making your purchase, you should check that the pair you are interested in blocks all types of UV light. Otherwise, it does not fulfil its purpose of protecting your eyes from the sun. Although most cheap sunglasses are totally useless as a shield against the sun, you won’t have to pay a fortune to buy truly effective sunglasses. It should be noted that you should not attempt to look at the sun directly for long even while wearing a good pair of sunglasses. 

Tip 3: Don’t spend too much time in front of a screen

It goes without saying that you will need to use the maps on your phone in order to find directions or to google fun facts about a place, but it would be more beneficial for your brain and your eyes to limit your screen time and focus on the world around you. Staring at a screen for a long time means that you don’t blink as much and this dehydrates and makes your eyes hurt. 

Tip 4: Take care of your whole body

Taking care of your health in general means that your eyes are also accommodated. It goes without saying that you shouldn’t ban any foods or spend long hours at the gym every day. Moving your body and eating nutritious and fulfilling meals are the keys to good physical, eye and mental health. It means that you give your body all the necessary weapons to do its work, protect all systems and ensure that everything functions properly.
