We go to the gym to take care of our bodies, meditate to take care of our minds, eat well for overall health and go for yearly general health check ups. That’s plenty, right? Well, just as we get regular dental check ups, it’s also important to think about our eyes and check up on them as well.
Think about it, we do everything with our eyes from eating to working, entertaining to loving. Without them, we miss so much so since our eyes open up the world to us, it’s important that we take care of them, every way that we can not only for prevention of possible eye diseases and degeneration but also for early detection and treatment. Just like all other muscles, our eyes need regular care to maintain maximum performance.
That’s why I’ve teamed up with Think About Your Eyes, a national public awareness campaign that promotes the benefits of eye health, urging people to get annual comprehensive eye exams. Just as eating fresh, balanced meals nourishes our body, and exercising helps keep our physique healthy and strong, we should not take for granted the one part, which we take in the world.
However, if you haven’t been taking the best care of your eyes, rest assured that you aren’t alone. The folks at Think About Your Eyes recently surveyed members of national fitness center chain, Life Time Fitness, and found that some gym-goers neglect their eye health despite being very conscious of their body health and fitness. Crazy, right?

Now that it’s been brought to your attention, do you see the importance of taking care of your eyes and getting an annual eye exam? Just like your teeth, getting your nails done and your yearly OB/GYN exam, your eyes are just as, if not more important.
By getting an annual comprehensive eye exam, eye problems can be detected at their early stages when they’re most treatable. Visit the Think About Your Eyes eye care professional locator to find an eye doctor near you and schedule an exam.
