9 Tips For Dry, Irritated Eyes
By Eye Doctors Jenna and Travis Zigler
1. Keep your eyelids clean with a hypochlorous based eyelid cleanser. Clean eyelids help alleviate symptoms of eye dryness, eyelid irritation and other skin ailments.
2. Embrace a plant-based, alkaline diet that is rich in leafy green vegetables like spinach and kale. Minimize processed foods and animal products (including meat, dairy, and eggs). Start your day with a 16 ounce glass of water and a green smoothie, this will cascade into healthier choices throughout the day.
3. Flood your cells with oxygen by taking in omega-3 fatty acids and healthy fats. Add avocados, coconut oil, ground flaxseed, and chia seeds into your diet. Take an omega-3 supplement that is formulated for irritated eyes.
4. Hydrate yourself with 10 glasses (80 ounces) of filtered water daily. Keep a water bottle with you, and each time you think about being thirsty, drink a full glass. Make sure you're getting at least half your body weight in ounces per day. That means at least 75 ounces for someone who weighs 150 pounds.
5. Make sure you're not deficient in vitamins and minerals. Up your intake of magnesium, and ensure that you're taking in enough of Vitamins A, C, B6, D, and E. A great multivitamin and greens powder will do wonders to give you more energy, reduce inflammation, and soothe your eyes.
6. Sleep more, stress less. Get outside and ground yourself daily (walk in the grass without your shoes on!) Keep a daily gratitude journal, where you write down 3 things every night that you were grateful for that day. Try to get 7-8 hours of restful sleep per night.
7. Avoid Processed Foods. Food is the ultimate cause or eliminator of inflammation in your body, which results in dry, irritated eyes. Avoid foods that cause inflammation such as chips, cookies, excess alcohol, breads, fried foods, dairy, and more.
8. Get rid of the junk in your face wash. So many of face washes and eyelid cleansers are loaded with chemicals that contribute to facial blemishes and eyelid irritation. Heyedrate’s formula was developed by two doctors and is cruelty free and free of parabens, formaldehyde, phthalates, fragrances and dyes.
9. Avoid these 3 ingredients in your eye cream and face moisturizer. We all want to look and feel younger, and there are many ways to help us achieve those goals. One way to ensure that your skin stays supple and hydrated is to moisturize it well. However, do you know what ingredients are in your favorite eye cream or face moisturizer?
