While going outdoors during the summer, protect your eyes using sunglasses. Sunglasses are the best protection that you can give your eyes when you go out in the sun. The sun beats down ultra violet and other harmful radiations. You eyes need protection from these radiations because they can cause serious damage to your eyes if they are directly exposed to them. Below are some tips for choosing sunglasses.

1. The sunglasses must cover the region of your eyes completely.
2. Sunglasses may be of any color that you like but make sure that they guard your eyes against ultra violet radiations.
3. Take care to see that your sunglasses are always clean and free from dust and smudges.
4. The best way to choose your sunglasses is to put them on and stare at your face in a mirror. If you can see your eyes in the mirror, then the glasses are not good enough.

Do not work continuously on your computer for more than half an hour. This in fact is a very relative concept because some people tire faster than other when working on the computer. Computer screens emit radiation, so the less time in front of the computer, the better.

If your eyes give you signs that it has had enough take the cue. But often, after you get used to working on the computer, you start ignoring these signs. The best thing you can do is make it a point to give your eyes a break at least every half hour of working on the computer.

The best rest that you can give your eyes is staring at a distant object. Or you can try massaging your eyes gently. Please remember that your eyes are unlike any other part of your body so you have to take very good care of them. The same holds true when it comes to massaging your eyes as well.

1. When you massage your eyes take care to use only the soft balls of your fingers.
2. Do not use your finger tips because your nails could give you scratches.
3. The best fingers to massage your eyes with are the three middle fingers, which are the fingers between your thumb and the little finger.
4. Place the balls of your fingers on you’re your eye brows and gently press down.
5. Please remember to be gentle; we are not talking about a major massage therapy here.
6. Now let your fingers roll down around your eyes making gentle circling movements.
7. The motion should start from the eye brows and end at the corners of the eyes near the nose bridge.
8. Repeat this two or three times and you can feel your eye muscles relax.
9. It is a good idea to this at least five or six times a day if you are working at something that gives a lot of strain to your eyes.

If you feel that your eyes are under strain, take a break. The best relaxation for your eyes is staring at a distant object or just keeping them closed. Your eyes will give you signs when they are under strain. You will find that you are getting tired sooner, your eyes may start to water or you might notice that you have to squint your eyes in order to get a better view.

Never watch television while lying down. The best position to watch television is sitting and your eyes should preferably be at the level of the television screen.

Do not sit too close to your television set. Take care to sit a considerable distance from the screen. It is easier for your eyes to focus on the images that flash across your TV screen. It is also less harmful for your eyes. The ideal distance from your TV set is around five feet or more.
