Learn simple things you can do for your eye health and your eyes will feel and look much better in only a few days. It is proven that UV rays can seriously damage your eyes, but good sunglasses can prevent this damage. When buying sunglasses, make sure that they block at least 98% of UV radiation. It is a common knowledge that working with poor light can cause eyestrain, but light that is too bright can do as much damage. The great invention of the 20th century computers is not so great from the point of view of health. Almost everybody feels discomfort in their eyes after peering at a computer screen all day long.
