Want healthy eyes? Follow these five methods and ensure your eyes don't bother you.

Do not shy away from protective eyewear: Protective eyewear includes safety glasses and goggles, safety shields, and eye guards designed to provide the correct protection for specific activities.

Don't stress your eyes, give them some rest: Every 20 minutes, look away about 20 feet in front of you for 20 seconds, especially if you are working on a computer. This will reduce strain on the eyes.
