Recently I became concerned with my eyesight because my eyes felt really tired after spending hours blogging. Not good I thought I should find some info about saving it. What amazed me that I found out that all my beliefs about eyesight were myths. I rechecked this info on many websites, and found the same myths everywhere, it’s still some how unbelievable.

1. Sitting too close to the television will hurt your eyes
False. There is no evidence that sitting close to the television will damage
your eyes. Eyes may become tired from sitting too close for long
periods, if the light in the room is too dim, or if the picture screen
is out of focus.

2. Reading in dim light can damage your eyes
False.Reading in dim light can cause eye fatigue, but it will not hurt your eyes.

3. Eating carrots will improve your vision
False. While it is true that carrots are high in Vitamin A, which is an
essential vitamin for sight, only a small amount is necessary for good
vision.

4. Eye exercises will improve your vision
False. Eye exercises will not improve your vision. This myth has made
many people wealthy. Rolling your eyes around has no effect on your vision.

5.You can wear your eyes out by using them too much
False. You cannot wear your eyes out by using them. Cutting down on
reading or close work, will not help or harm your eyesight.
