How too help kids protect their eyesight?

Here are some ways to keep your child’s eyes healthy.
 
Feed them well
Healthy and nutritious foods are a must for healthy eyes. Vegetables, fruits, and meats are all loaded with the vitamins and minerals your child needs. Fish is essential too and should be incorporated in meals throughout the week for up to 12 ounces of fish.
 
Give them the right toys
Toys that encourage visual development will help your child’s eyes. Visually stimulating toys like modeling clay, building blocks, or even stringing beads will all give eyes a healthy workout.
 
Keep them from staring at screens all day
It’s all too easy to plop your child down with the iPad while you attend to the things that you need to do. However, allowing your child to stare at a screen all day, especially up close can cause harm to the eyes.
 
Protect them from sharp edges
Eye damage can occur if you don’t guard against sharp edges. Put buffers on sharp corners of furniture and don’t give your child toys with pointy edges.
 
Take them for regular checkups
Your child’s pediatrician can recommend what’s appropriate, but you should make sure to take your child for eye exams to ensure good eye health.
