Most of this damage is caused by ultraviolet radiation.

How Much do You Know about Your Eyes

At present, more and more people begin to smoke and drink. They understand it clearly that smoking and drinking are not good to their health, especially their lung; however, except their lung, smoking and drinking will also do some harm to their other part, which is their eyes. It’s likely that some of you have suffered from the harm of smoking and drinking to your eyes. While you might do not think that it’s not because you smoke and drink, you regard it to result by other reasons.  

In the first place, I’m going to say something about smoke. At first, more of them just think it’s cool; however, as the time goes, it’s harder and harder for them to get rid of it. Even though, they know that smoking it’s not good to their lung, some of them just ignore it. As a matter of fact, except smoking will do some harm to your lung, it also will do some harm to your eyes. Those smokers who smoke for a long time will become an asthenopia sufferer because of tobacco toxicosis. At the beginning, your eyes do not feel good, and then your strength start to slack up. You are unable to distinguish color clearly, and when it comes to be worse, you may suffer from neuritis or ablepsia. According to a recent research, cyanide which is contained in tobacco will stockpile in your body. Once it’s over a certain critical number, it is going to have a bad effect in your whole body, and your eyes are the most distinct one.

In the next place, it’s the drink. It’s well-known that there is grain alcohol in the alcohol. Do you know that grain alcohol can result the congest in your eyeballs’ conjunctiva? If your eyes are in that kind of condition for a long time, then it’s likely that part of your tissue will be short of nutrition. On the understanding that you drink at a large amount, a great number of nutrition could be used up in a while, and as a result, you can suffer from the dryness of your cornea and conjunctiva, neuritis and the turbidity of your lenses.

What’s more, there is one thing I have to let you have a clear idea is that on condition that you are a shortsighted sufferer, you’d better smoke and drink as little as possible. Since your eyes are already not so good, then you should be nicer to them rather than be worse to them. Otherwise, it’s possible that one day your eyes will not work you forever.

Now that it’s not good to drink and smoke, therefore, you ought to try your best not to drink and smoke. I believe that it’s better for you not to smoke; as for drinking, it’s ok for you to drink a little bit now and then. But you should not drink a lot every time.

Sending a Gift

Have you ever been worried about what kind of presents should be sent to family members or friends? I do. I have sent lots of presents, like clothes, books, bags etc. Every time they get the gift, they just return a smile and thanks to me. I have not received a surprised expression for quite long time. However, once when I surf the internet, the Glasssshop.com attracted my attention. It suddenly occurred to me that may be I can send a pair of sunglasses as a gift. In the hot summer, a pair of sunglasses is not only fashionable, but also necessary. If you do have the same problem with me, I would like to add the sunglasses to your gift list.

Sunglasses have a lot of functions and benefits. Wear sunglasses means more than looking fashionable. With the rapid development of society and civilization, people’s living standard has been greatly improved, and they begin to pay more and more attention to their health. As a result, I would like to introduce to you some knowledge about the sunglasses from a health perspective.

First, as we all know, UV rays in the sunlight are harmful to eyes. We should not expose our eyes to strong sunlight directly. The scientific research has revealed that UV light can damage our eyes’ retina and cornea. But don’t be panic. There is a simple and effective way to avoid this. That is to ware a pair of qualify sunglasses to protect your eyes from hazard UV radiation. At the same time, it can also reduce the risk of developing macular degeneration and cataracts. Sending a pair of sunglasses is not only sending wishes but also sending health.

Second, too much bright sun lights entering your eyes would cause the iris to close, which will make you to squint and thus feel uncomfortable. However, with a pair of sunglasses, you do not have such worries at all. A pair of sunglasses can keep the harmful UV light out of your eyes and help you see properly. So now you do not have to flatten your eyes even under the shinning light. It is time for you to open your eyes and show your charm.

The eyes are the windows to the world. How can we allow any to be done to our delicate eyes? We should try our best to give any protection we can think of to them. Do not just care about your skin and your hair style; you have given them enough attention. It is time to turn your concern to your eyes. Buy yourself and your friends a pair of sunglasses, you will bring them not only surprise, but also fashion and health. I strongly recommend that sunglasses sent as a gift should be considered.

My First Sun Glasses

I love books. When I was only a little child, I began to engage in reading fictions and novels. So at my teens, my eyes had been so poor that I had to wear the heavy pair of glasses. I hate wearing glasses. But I want to wear a pair of sunglasses. Especially in the hot summer, I can’t endure to wear the heavy glasses for a moment longer. I hope to have a pair of beautiful sun glasses.

 Should people like me wear sunglasses? Are there suitable glasses for the myopia people? Every summer, I always envy people who can wear their favorite sun glasses. It looks so cool. But I have to wear the annoying glasses. It is a really nuisance, especially in the strong sunlight. I even can’t open my eyes as usual. Although my eyesight is poor, I am longing for a pair of sunglasses. 

 This is my wish for over ten years. Unfortunately I have not realized the wish. Recently some of my friends having poor eyesight began to wear sun glasses. It attracts me a lot. Maybe I should buy a pair of sun glasses, too. So I couldn’t help asking them where to buy the proper sun glasses as the myopia. One of my friends told me that her sun glasses were bought in the on-line shop. It is cheap, convenient, in style and has high-quality. From that time, I tried to surf on the Internet and find the sun glasses suitable for me. A week ago, I found a wonderful on-line glasses shop by chance. There are many wonderful sun glasses for the myopia. They are all high-tech products protecting the eyes and adding more charm to your summer life. After the careful choice, I booked a pair of brown lens glasses. This style is in vogue this year. Yesterday I received my sun glasses. And until now, I have been in full excitement.

 Today I went out wearing the new sun glasses. I saw the strong sunlight becoming light and felt the air cooler. This is the magic of the sun glasses. Because of this new pair of glasses, my journey became more comfortable. Thanks to the sun glasses, I can enjoy the sunlight and a cooler summer life.

Three Choices of Sunglasses are Available for People with Poor Vision in Glassesshop.com

With the coming of the summer in 2009, on June 12th, Neil Wilson, the CEO of Glassesshop.com, an online optical stores specializing in prescription eyeglasses, announced the release of prescription sunglasses which gets people with poor vision out of the difficulty of wearing sunglasses.

It is well known that wearing sunglasses is an effective and common way to protect eyes for bright sunshine and harmful UV rays. At the same time, stylish sunglasses have been regarded as a kind of decoration to match with different clothing for different occasions.

While, for those people who suffer from poor vision such as myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism, it is not so easy to wear sunglasses, as they need lenses with power to see clearly. Although some solutions for this problem, such as contact lenses plus sunglasses, clip ons are available, there are still some customers complain about it. As the customer service supervisor Jessica said that according to the feedbacks from customers, the majority of them prefer prescription sunglasses.

For prescription sunglasses, the director-general of prescription sunglasses department King Smith revealed that three kinds of choices are provided by Glassesshop.com:

The first choice: prescription eyeglasses plus color tinted = prescription sunglasses

You may doubt whether it is sunglasses because sunglasses need to be effective in protecting eyes from UV radiations. Tinted lenses are just one of the surface characteristics of sunglasses. You can rest assured all lenses on our website are with UV 400 which can resist ultraviolet rays within 400 nm. The tinted lenses are used for protecting your eyes from blazing sunshine so that you can open your eyes as usual.

The second choice: photochromic lenses

Photochromic lenses can adjust color automatically, dark in the strong light and becomes light or even transparent in the dim light. So, with photochromic lenses, in the sunshine, it is a pair of sunglasses, while in the house or cloudy days, it is a pair of prescription glasses. People are relieved from taking off and putting on different glasses. There are mid-index1.553 thin plastic lenses and transitions lenses available on Glassesshop.com.

The third choice: polarized lenses

Polarized lenses do an excellent job in filtering lights and glare reflected from water surface, glass and smooth roadway, especially suitable for drivers. In day, polarized lenses effectively block the direct sunshine; in night, they filter the glare of the headlamps to prevent dazzling; in rainy or foggy days, they filter various reflecting and scattering light to increase clarity. In a word, polarized lenses are perfect choice for drivers to see more clearly while driving in different weather conditions.

For your convenience, after a month of hard work by Technology Development Department, Glassesshop.com has elaborately designed a simple system for ordering prescription sunglasses online. Lynn Wong, the Manager of Department said “The system is special for prescription sunglasses. It is much easier and quicker in placing an order. Meanwhile, you are sure to get what you want most with its assistance.”

With all-out efforts, Glassesshop.com is determined to achieve an excellent performance. What’s will be happening next? We will pay a close attention to it.

Glasses Love

Since I was very young, I started to wear glasses because of nearsightedness. A lot people will feel very bad about it if they have the same situation with me. However, I should gradually fall in love with glasses.

 In my eyes, wearing glasses can add more glamour to us. When other people look at us, they are more likely to believe that we are learned and have much wisdom, instead of those girls who just have a pretty face and good figure without any knowledge. I think modern girls should have their own thoughts and understanding toward different things.

 Another reason for me to buy different kinds of glasses like crazy is that those fashionable styles of them catch my heart at first glance. Nowadays, glasses are not the same as those in the past, which make you look like an idiot if wearing them. Glasses have its own trend just as clothes, bags, and jewelry. Every season, it will roll out its latest style. As a result, glasses shops are essential places for me to go every month. I have already collected more than fifty pairs of glasses.

 Of course, choosing glasses is never an easy job. Very often I will buy a pair of expensive glasses on impulse, and just after several days later, I feel so regretful that they are not as beautiful as that when I first see them. Then I have to put them away in my closet; probably will never take them out again. At that time, my heart start to ache for that pair of glasses has cost me almost half of my salary. So now though I still like to buy different kinds of glasses, I will try more pairs. Unless I am positive that they match me well, I will not take out my pocket and buy them. In a word, I have become more sensible about buying glasses.

 Since a long time ago, friends and colleagues have been suggesting me wearing contact lenses. They persuade that wearing that kind of glasses can make my eyes more shining and more convenient as well. I can’t say that I have never thought about that idea before: however, in the end, I will still stick to my beloved glasses.

Life is just like that. Once you fall in love with something, you may never break away with it forever.

Do You Know Coarse Food Grain is Good for Eyes?

More and more people have visual problems. Children get myopia, adults suffer from dry eyes, and old people may have glaucoma and cataract. Most of the cases have certain relation with the change of people’s life style and the intense using of eyes.

When we mention the protection of eye vision, most of us will first of all think up the health care of eyes. However, according what experts say, apart from eye health care, the well balanced diet is an influential factor.

Too sweet food may harm the eyes. As we all know, children are mostly fond of desserts. But beyond our thought, if we have sweet food in a long run, the eyes may get bad influence. It is showed by modern medicine science, people who have excessive amount of desserts for a long period are easy to suffer from eye diseases, among which myopia is the most common one. Generally speaking, the body needs a large quantity of vitamin B1 to consume sugar content. If we take in too much sugar, vitamin B1 will be out of supply. In addition to that, extra sugar content will also reduce the calcium. All in all, these may cause and worsen myopia.

Furthermore, if we eat too finery food, our diet will lack in chromium; and if we eat too much soft food, the facial muscles could not get enough exercises. These may result in eye problems some day.

Different eye diseases could get better by eating. For not only myopia but also other eye diseases caused by diabetes, it is important to control blood sugar through diet. Experts have offered some tips to various eye diseases by matching healthy food to get better cure.

Myopia: Hard food and coarse food grain (e.g. maize.sorghum.millet.etc. as distinct from wheat and rice) are good for myopia, so we should have more often. We also need to eat fishes, grains, citrus fruit, and red fruit often, which have great effect to the prevention from worsening the eye vision. At the same time, we should eat less sweet food in order to avoid the deepening of myopia.

Dry eyes: Owing to working at the desk or watching the computer screen for too long time, we use our eyes too much. Some of us may feel the eyes are very dry. If so, we need to have more different kinds of fruit, especially the citrus fruit, and we should form a habit of being fond of eating green vegetable, fish and eggs.

Farsightedness: It is suitable to have a bit more garlic, onion, milky product (low-fat milk), dry fruit, animal’s liver, and fine rice. We should eat less food with high fat.

Glaucoma: If we suffer from this eye disease, the eye pressure may be very high, so we should have less greasy food. If possible, drink less tea, coffee and wine, and try to give up smoking.

Before I Could Get To Know Him

On the very day I entered the college, I had this dream: there was a very handsome guy wearing white shirts, brown glasses, and I did not say a single word to him, looking at him was enough.

When I woke up the next morning, I did not pay any attention to it, figuring that it was just a dream, and to me, a dream did not mean anything more than a piece of short memory. That morning, I went to the library and borrowed some books. I seldom paid any attention to the people in the library, which was my habit.

Suddenly, I lifted my eyelids and there he was, a handsome guy wearing white shirts, brown glasses, and I swore I was not making this up, for a second, my heart stopped beating. This exact face in my dream awoke something unexplainable in my heart; it felt like I was struck by the lightening. I could feel my palm was sweating, and my breath was taken away. He passed me by, I was never so focused before, but this time, something from nowhere touched me.

Just when I was struggling to summon the courage and talk to him, he disappeared in the crowd. I searched for him while I was calling my friend to tell her this weird thing. He was nowhere both downstairs and upstairs.

My friend hurried to the library and asked me what was up. I told her the story in a great detail, and for a long time her mouth stayed wide open. He was gone, what happened next puzzled me a lot more than the dream itself, that was the first and last time I ever saw this person.

We went out and ordered two cups of coffee. Crossing the table was a girl who was fascinated by what I told her. Her big bright eyes behind the glasses still could not believe a single word out of my mouth. I did not argue with her or anyone who was suspicious of this story. I knew I was telling the truth about that guy, and that was enough. 

There were many guys coming and leaving my life and none of them had ever left me with a more profound impression. You may not be able to get to know the person who made your palm sweating and heart beating because you were not brave or determined yet, remember him, for he was the one who taught me how delicate a change could be.

Put Quality as the First Consideration

Today is Angela’s birthday, who is one of my best friends. So, I and another two good buddies will go to her house to celebrate the birthday for her, and Angela said she would show us her cooking skills. WOW! That’s great! It’s the first time for us to taste the food cooked by her. So, we are all excited very much. Angela goes to the supermarket first and we three are selecting the presents for her and then will go to her house together.

When we three are selecting the presents in high spirits, my cell-phone is ringing.

“Hi, Angela, what’s going on?”

“Hi, Linda, I’m Angela’s mother. She just broken her leg and in the hospital right now.”

“What? It’s incredible! Don’t worry, auntie, we are going to the hospital at once.”

We are so surprised about the thing because we were just talking on the phone. When we reach the hospital, Angela is receiving the treatment.

“Oh, Angela, how you are feel right now?”

“It’s much better now. But I’m sorry I can’t cook for you guys today, it’s really bad.”

“Come on, it doesn’t matter. What about you? How did it happen?”

“The sun is very hot today, so I went out wearing my new prescription sunglasses which was bought last week. At the beginning I just felt dizzy and nauseous and a little headache. I supposed I got sunstroke because the weather is really hot and I have the same symptom the other day. But a few minutes later, my headache was heavy and my vision was becoming dimmer and dimmer. Suddenly, I felt that the objects I saw were not at the same plane, and then I fallen down the stairs.”

“It’s really horrible. What did the doctor say? Do you get sunstroke or something else?”

“No, it’s my prescription sunglasses. I bought it from a small shop instead of a professional eyeglasses store. The sunglasses style is pretty cool and the shopkeeper said that its strength is the same as mine, and the most important thing, it’s very cheap and I think I can buy some pairs to match different clothes.”

“I have heard that those cheap sunglasses are not good for the eyes, but I never have personal experience. Now, I know that it’s so dangerous to wear a pair of inferior sunglasses.” I said.

“Yes and the doctor told me that there are so many people especially young come to the hospital since the summer coming because of wearing the poor sunglasses. He said that many poor sunglasses have the fashionable style and very cheap. Some people just care about the style, and the others want to save money because they think they need many pairs of sunglasses to match different clothes or make-up. But the poor sunglasses are very harmful to the eyes. Some people have some light symptom like dizzy and nauseous, but some people have some serious symptom like vision lost. There was a woman have had a car accident because of wearing poor quality sunglasses. It’s very dangerous.”

“Oh, god, it really scared us. All of us should draw lessons from this. Have a good rest and never buy poor sunglasses.”

“Yes, I won’t make the same mistakes.”

It’s really a lesson for all of us. Put quality as the first consideration, and don’t buy those poor quality sunglasses. It’s not only good for our eyes, but also for our person security.
