The development of business and entertainment has led to increasing numbers of problems for our eyes. Eye strain caused by the excessive watching of TV, computer monitors, books, and other devices has become a severe problem. This is a concern among children who are becoming more and more addicted to video and computer games. They spend long hours staring at the screen with few breaks. Other things can also cause poor eyesight. Pollution can damage the eyes, as well as a poor diet. This is especially true for the poor in society as they may not be able to afford the food necessary to provide everything that their bodies need. There is also an increase of people born with bad eyesight others develop poor vision at an early age. This can be caused by the misuse of a person’s eyesight. This misuse can come in the form of being consumed with schoolwork and study until their vision begins to blur. They may not take care of their eyes with such things as eye drops. Many may not even get glasses. It is natural that a person with poor eyesight should wear glasses or contact lens. However, many people decline to use these since they feel that it may take away their good looks. This is really surprising as a person’s eyes are very precious. If they are lost, it could seriously damage the livelihood or standard of living of that person.
