While performing of a wide variety of daily tasks, our eyes are subjected to a multitude of stresses; hours spent in front of the PC, sunlight and night driving can all impair the physiological function of vision, cause fatigue, and result in decreased performance. Especially affected are those who spend a large amount of time driving (truck drivers, taxi drivers, etc.), students, teachers, and those with professions that requie using extremely precise vision (goldsmiths, watchmakers, assemblers, welders etc.).

Even school children are at risk with commitments to school and tasks at home often compounded by long hours of watching TV and/or playing video games. The radiation emitted by these objects have negative effects on the eyes, resulting in a high proportion of children acknowledging sight discomfort. In all these cases, it may be useful to employ natural products containing plants such as blueberries, carrots and Elderberry, which are rich in active ingredients and play a beneficial antioxidant role that can help the physiological features of vision.

Apart from using herbal products at the advice of a health professional, it is important to undergo regular check ups to verify the state of our eye health, especially in the case of children, which may show redness in the eyes, eye fatigue or headaches exclusively during school hours. Fatigued vision could cause difficulties that result in a child becoming unnecessarily behind other students and thereby stunt actual intellectual potential.
