You have all read and re-read quotes by famous and prominent people in society.
However, two of them remain outstanding to me: The Yiddish Proverb that states, “The eyes are the mirror of the soul”
Or Henry David Thoreau’s infamous quote that goes something like, “The eye is the jewel of the body.”
The eyes in all aspects contribute to the aesthetics of a person just as jewels do – an accessory if you may.
But all in all having perfect eyes and eyesight and maintaining those remains at the sole discretion of the bearer.
Everyone at some point in time has said something close to this, “I think there’s something wrong with my eye!” This is normal and can be prevented if not avoided all the same.
Here are some important tips for eye care that you should be reminded of; since I’m sure you are already aware of them!
