The skin around your eyes is very thin and just a short amount
of sunlight could cause lasting wrinkles.
• Applying something with SPF to face, neck, and hands.
Skipping the protection of an SPF could throw off your entire
routine. Find a good moisturizer that combines protection with
moisture and apply it to your face, neck, and hands. The neck
and hands are often overlooked, but prime spots for the sun to
hit and cause wrinkles.
• Quitting bad habits. Now is a better time than ever to kick the
bad habits you learned in high school and college. The number
of benefits of canceling your package at the tanning salon and
quitting smoking would take up this entire article, but for skin’s
sake, give them up!
TREATMENT YEARS
Now is the time to treat the years of damage that the sun and
other elements have caused to your skin.
• Put the right nutrients into your body. It’s important to make
sure your body is getting all the nutrients it needs on the inside
for radiant skin on the outside. This includes lots of water!
• Take cover when heading outside. SPF shouldn’t be skipped at
this age either and should be applied daily. Try adding a hat and
cover your skin to prevent overexposure to the harmful rays of
the sun, even in the cooler months.
• Find a good retinoid. Derived from vitamin-A, retinoids boost
collagen production in the skin to stimulate blood vessels and
unclog pores.

SEEING INTO THE FUTURE
Twenty-first century children will be looking beyond genetics as
a cause for needing corrective eyewear, according to the American
Optometric Association (AOA). In the Digital Age, children are
exposed to electronic devices their whole lives as an integral part of
social and educational practices. Teachers are continuing to increase
the amount of digital technology used in the classroom, and it is
expected that computer simulations will account for much of the
learning style in the future. Both teachers and parents are finding
that children are adapting well to the use of technology in the
classroom, making learning more interactive and current than most
textbook learning.
The AOA’s 2015 American Eye-Q® survey states that 41 percent
of parents say their kids spend three or more hours per day using
digital devices, and 66 percent of kids have their own smartphone or
tablet. As technology becomes more of an essential part of modern
life, it is important for parents to find balance in their children’s
digital usage. Electronic devices, including televisions, give off
blue and violet light that may affect vision by causing eyestrain and
discomfort. If your child has to do homework using the computer or
tablet, keep the television off during dinnertime and instead enjoy
conversation together. Optometrists also researched the importance
of natural sunlight exposure to the eyes and say that the lack of
exposure to natural light could affect the growth and development
of vision.
