You may not realize this but what you eat may prevent certain issues with your eyes. You can maintain better eye health if you consume foods rich in zinc, Vitamins E and C and omega-3 fatty acids. Foods that are rich in these nutrients are leafy green vegetables, nuts, beans, oranges, tuna and salmon.
If you suffer with red puffy eyes a lot, consider reducing your sodium intake. Unfortunately, the salt we enjoy on our food isn't all that good for our bodies, including the eyes. Try switching to sea salt instead, or using other herb and spice mixtures that contain no sodium at all. Your eyes should improve quickly.
If you spend a lot of time on the computer, take regular breaks. For a minute or two each hour, focus on a distant object. This will allow your eyes to readjust. You will experience less eye strain and reduce the number of headaches that you experience throughout the week.
