Many factors impact the health of the human eye. Even if disease is already present, following these recommendations can help your body be its healthiest and, in some cases, slow the progression of the disease.
Living an overall healthy life is good for your eyes, you can start taking steps toward living a healthy life by: Follow the suggestions on this checklist to maintain healthy vision throughout your life.


• Have a comprehensive dilated eye exam regularly after age 40, yearly if your doctor recommends it. It may help you see better and could identify common eye diseases that have no warning signs.

• Know your family's eye health history. Many eye diseases have a hereditary component, so you may be at a higher-than-average risk of being affected.

• Eat right to protect your sight. Eat a diet rich in fruit and vegetables, particularly dark leafy greens such as spinach, kale, or collard greens, and fish high in omega-3 fatty acids such as salmon, tuna, and halibut.

• Maintain a healthy weight. Being overweight has been shown to contribute to four eye diseases, including macular degeneration and glaucoma.
• Exercise daily or as often as you can, especially aerobic exercises, to improve your immune system and blood pressure and your eye and brain health.

• Maintain a normal blood pressure of 120/80. Having cardiovascular disease has been linked to an increased risk for macular degeneration.

• Wear protective eyewear: sports or tasks at home or at work may lead to damage.

• Quit smoking or never start. Toxins found in cigarette smoke have been linked to an increased risk for developing a number of diseases, including macular degeneration.


• Give your eyes a rest. Reduce eyestrain by looking away from your monitor or other near work every 20 minutes, to a distance of 20 feet in front of you, for 20 seconds.

• Managing chronic conditions. Many conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, and multiple sclerosis, can greatly impact vision, resulting in inflammation of the optic nerve, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and even blindness. Managing these conditions with the help of your health care provider can often prevent these eye problems from occurring.
