Tired eyes are a problem that many people often ignore. Unfortunately, we often force them to overexert themselves, which results in, among other things: swelling, redness, irritation, dryness, or a feeling of a foreign body under the eyelids.

how to protect your eyes from strain

What causes eye strain ?

A number of factors, such as:

- lack of sufficient sleep.

- exposing the eyes to too much exposure in front of a computer/TV/smartphone screen.

- straining your eyes when there is too little light (reading in low light).

- work with artificial light.

- long car ride.

- staying in air-conditioned rooms.

- other activities that intensely focus our eyesight on one point/object.

How to help tired eyes?

There are several ways to prevent eye strain. First, we should ask ourselves what is really causing us discomfort – is it lack of sleep, working in front of a computer screen, or something else? So where can you start?

  • First of all, get enough sleep.
  • Check the lighting in which you read, watch TV or work. Make sure the room is evenly lit - this way your eyes will not be exposed to unnecessary strain.
  • Take regular short breaks from your tasks, whether you are sitting in front of a computer screen or embroidering.
  • Moisturize your eyes and the room you are in.

The next step may be lutein supplementation. Activlab Pharma currently has a product with the highest content of natural crystalline lutein on the market (up to 40 mg). Importantly, the supplement has been additionally enriched with zeaxanthin! Both lutein and zeaxanthin belong to the yellow-orange pigments from the carotenoid group. They are concentrated mainly in the retina of the eye, while where our vision is the sharpest, zeaxanthin is the leader. With age, the amount of lutein and zeaxanthin in the retina significantly decreases, so it is extremely important to replenish their deficiencies through proper supplementation.

The human body is not able to synthesize lutein (considered by many to be an "eye vitamin"). That is why it is necessary to have an adequate supply of it in the diet or in products such as Luteina Extra !
