Did you know that regular exercise not only promotes muscular and mental wellness, but is also an excellent preventative measure to combat eye problems. Working out at least three times a week can reduce the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration and glaucoma. Joining a fitness club is not a pre-requisite, (although fitness trainers can program a specific workout that is suitable for you), there are a bunch of physical activities that you can do outside the gym. Walking, jogging, home workouts, or engaging in a sport to name a few are other great ways to keep an active lifestyle. What's important is that you do it regularly.
Staying active contributes greatly to preventing sight-threatening diseases. The risk of vision loss is usually aggravated by health conditions including increased blood pressure and Type 2 Diabetes. Glaucoma, macular edema, diabetic retinopathy, and cataracts are commonly associated with diabetes specifically.
