Teen age care for girls - 03. Eyes

Most of us don't realize the importance of examining our eyes by a professional doctor regularly.

Do you have any of these symptoms?

1. Headache after reading books.

2. Problems viewing distant or closer objects

3. Double vision.

If you said yes to any of the above three questions then you may need glasses!

But ofcourse first you need to examine your eyes!

If you are not familiar with eye examination, don't worry! It's pretty simple.

First, the doctor puts few drops of medicine in your eyes to dilate your eyes i.e. enlarging your pupil. This helps the doctor to see your eyes clearly. Don't be scared, it will not hurt at all.

Then the doctor might ask you to read a chart at a distance and up-close.

Finally the doctor will also look at your eyes through a special equipment that looks very much like a microscope.

If you have problems with viewing objects that are far way then you might be near-sighted whereas if you have problems reading something that's very near, then you might be far-sighted.

If the doctor recommends you to wear glasses, it’s good to wear them all the time. Never worry about being the first in your class to wear glass or how you might look with glasses!

It's quite common to wear glasses during school years. So even though you are the first to wear it in your class, very soon you will see that you have lots of classmates to give you company.

Similarly don't bother too much about your looks with glasses. Since you are in growing stage, soon people will not even remember how you looked without glasses!

Instead of glasses, you can also opt for contact lenses. But they require daily care and cleaning. You should opt for lenses only if you are ready enough to take up the responsibility.

It’s always a good practice to wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from UV rays.
