Looking after your eye health becomes increasingly important as we get older.

Bluebird Care Richmond & Twickenham list five simple steps you can take to help protect your vision and maintain healthy eyes.

  1. Eat a healthy, balanced diet - A varied diet can help support overall eye health.
  2. Wear UV-protective sunglasses - Protect your eyes from the sun by wearing sunglasses that offer UV protection.
  3. Get your eyes tested regularly - Regular eye tests can help identify changes in your vision and spot potential problems.
  4. Know your family's eye health history - Understanding your family's eye health can help you be aware of conditions that may run in your family.
  5. Quit smoking - Smoking can affect eye health, so quitting can be an important step towards protecting your vision.

Taking simple steps to look after your eyes can help you stay on top of your eye health as you age.
