As spring and summer arrive, so do unique challenges for your eyes. Increased sunlight, blooming allergens, dry air, and longer screen time can all lead to discomfort—and even long-term eye issues if left unchecked. Just like you switch up your skincare with the seasons, your eyes deserve the same attention.
Here’s how to care for your eyes during the warmer months and the best supplements to keep your vision strong—all available at The VitaShope.
Why Spring & Summer Eye Care Matters
Seasonal shifts bring more than just sunshine—they bring strain. UV exposure can damage the retina. Pollen and allergens can lead to red, itchy, watery eyes. Dry wind and heat reduce tear production, while increased screen time and sweating can deplete essential eye nutrients.
Common Eye Stressors This Season:
-
🌞 UV Rays → Risk of retinal damage
-
🌸 Allergens → Itchy, irritated eyes
-
💨 Dry Air → Dry eye symptoms
-
💻 Screen Time → Digital eye fatigue
-
💧 Dehydration → Nutrient loss
Top Eye Health Tips for Spring & Summer
1. Wear UV-Blocking Sunglasses
Choose sunglasses that offer 100% UV protection to prevent sun-induced damage.
2. Avoid Rubbing Your Eyes
Allergies can make your eyes itchy—but rubbing worsens symptoms. Use antihistamine drops or artificial tears instead.
3. Stay Hydrated
Drink water consistently and use a humidifier indoors to prevent dry eyes.
4. Follow the 20-20-20 Rule
Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. It helps relieve digital eye strain.
5. Eat for Eye Health
Include foods rich in Omega-3, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E—or consider supplements.
