It is said that the eyes are the windows to our soul.     26     Your eyes need everyday attention.

First, you have to pay more attention to your diet (饮食).     27     It’s good for your eyes. Also, a regular amount of vitamins A and B2 should also be taken.

Second, you must have regular and enough sleep. This relaxes the eye muscles and gives them the rest they need. Sleep can help the body repair its tired tissue (组织).     28     Loss of sleep can give you dark circles under your eyes.

    29     Blink (眨眼) your eyes at regular periods to keep your eyes moist (湿润的).

Last, you should treat your eyes correctly. For example, if you get something in your eyes, don’t start rubbing (揉) it. Rubbing is harmful to your eyes. Don’t read or write in poor or bright sunlight because sunlight can cause eye tiredness.     30     Too much reading, writing, watching television or working on a computer can also cause eye tiredness, so rest is required.
