Did you know that glaucoma, often called the "silent thief of sight," can affect anyone? This post aims to shed light on this eye condition and its symptoms.

Know the Signs:
1. Blurred Vision: If your vision starts to blur, especially at the edges, it could be a sign of glaucoma.
2. Severe Eye Pain: Unexplained eye pain or discomfort should never be ignored.
3. Tunnel Vision: Gradual loss of peripheral vision is a common indicator.
4. Halos Around Lights: Seeing halos, particularly in low light, may signal a problem.
5. Headaches & Nausea: Persistent headaches and nausea, coupled with vision issues, might be linked to glaucoma.

Regular eye check-ups are crucial, especially if you're over 40, have a family history of glaucoma, or have certain medical conditions like diabetes.

Let's spread the word! Share this post to ensure that everyone is informed about the signs of glaucoma. Early detection can save sight!

👁️ November is Diabetic Eye Disease Awareness Month! 👁️

😩 Eye Strain
😣 Squinting
💫 Halos & Glare
👁️ Double Vision
🌙 Night Driving Issues

👁️ Elevate your daily health routine for optimal eye wellness! Here are some essential steps to keep your peepers in top form:

1. **Stay Hydrated:** Remember to blink often. It keeps your eyes moist and prevents dryness.

2. **Screen Breaks:** If you're glued to screens, take a break every hour to reduce eye strain. The 20-20-20 rule is your friend - every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds.

3. **Sun Protection:** Shield your eyes from harmful UV rays by wearing sunglasses. Look for a pair that blocks 100% of UVA and UVB rays.

4. **Regular Eye Check-ups:** Don't forget those annual eye exams. They can catch issues early, ensuring you maintain excellent eye health.

Prioritize your vision, and it will serve you well for years to come! 👀💙

Fun Fact! The human eye blinks an average of 15-20 times per minute, which adds up to an astonishing 28,800 times a day! Blinking keeps your eyes moist and helps remove debris, making it a natural eye-cleansing mechanism.
