CAN YOU SEE ? FOR HOW LONG ?


Not all of us can boast of a 6/6 vision report card from our ophthalmologist. In fact, a lot of people are made to wear glasses from a very young age. Haven’t you felt heartbroken at least once in your life on having seen a tiny child of hardly 5 years of age burdened with the weight of those tolling glasses ? for some things we can blame too much television, or in these days, laptops and smartphones. For others, there is the infamous “gene pool” to blame.
As for the rest, they are just a product of unfortunate and unfavourable circumstances, like having that itch in your eye due to pollutants in the air or contracting conjunctivitis from an infectious friend , or even strangers! The point that needs to be driven home is that eye care is important , and so is the medicine that is prescribed as a diagnostic or remedial measure. Ocular pharmacology can be as simple as the eye drops you and eye use, to the liquid we keep our contact lenses in. What is important is that we get our ocular advice from certified professionals and put nothing but the best quality products into our eyes. What would life be with impaired or compromised vision, can you imagine ? So just be a little more careful with yourself, and a little more sympathetic towards those less fortunate.
