The Dhaka Times Desk Eyes need extra care after age 40. Taking care of the eyes is not that difficult at all. How to be careful to keep your eyes healthy will be discussed today.
We all know that eyes are one of the most sensitive parts of our body. With increasing age, various problems start with the eyes. Due to various irregularities in life, many people face eye problems even at a young age. Eyes do not rest due to lack of adequate sleep. But as much pressure comes on the eyes. Working in front of the computer, laptop for a long time in the office or watching the reel for hours on the mobile after coming home, the eyes do not rest well. From this habit at a young age, various problems can appear in the eyes in old age. After 40, eyes need extra care. Taking care of the eyes is not a difficult task. Today we will discuss how to be careful to keep your eyes healthy.
# First: Drinking plenty of water is very important to keep your eyes healthy. The higher the water level in the body, the better the eyes. Do not stare at the computer screen for long periods of time. Occasionally splash water in the eyes.
# Many people have their eyes on the TV or computer screen all the time. However, that habit should be controlled by thinking about the eyes. If not, it can lead to dry eyes. If you have to work on the computer, then there should be enough distance between the eyes and the screen. Especially those who work on computers or laptops for a long time, they need to have their eyes checked regularly. In addition, special glasses are now available that can protect the eyes from the harmful rays emitted by electric screens. Blue and UV protection glasses should also be worn if necessary.
# People who work on computers or laptops should have their eyes checked regularly. Excessive sun exposure is not good for the eyes. You can wear black sunglasses so that the sunlight does not fall directly on the eyes for a long time. Do not go out in the sun with bare eyes.
# Just as regular exercise is necessary to keep the body healthy, eye exercises should also be done to keep the eyes healthy. In this case you can follow the 20-20 rule. This rule requires you to look at an object 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds after looking at the screen continuously for 20 minutes. Also, frequent blinking is also important.
# It is necessary to have an eye examination at least once a year to prevent any damage to the eyes. According to experts, it will be possible to avoid problems like glaucoma and cataract by regular eye examination. Source: Anandabazar Patrika Online.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
