Everyone knows the importance of sight because it is our window to the outside world. Without sight, life will be shrouded with insecurity, hopelessness and darkness. Unlike our forefathers who are more involved in manual works, we are always straining our eye to look at small letters and images on so many different bright screens each day. We end up straining our eyes beyond what our eye muscles can tolerate without us knowing it. Assuming we can live till 75 years old, we become myopic at 16 and become hyperopic at 30. This is not what we want.
The challenge in this contest is to discover the daily habits that we have that will cause our eyes to expire its use faster than we expect/want. Share with us your knowledge, experience and stories that will let us understand the importance of our eyes and thus learn how to take care of them through good diet, exercise, habits, etc. You may read this extra-ordinary charity organization that always challenging itself to bring light to the blind. Visit them at http://www.anewvision.org and get some inspiration for your submission to this contest. As AmieOne is committed to supporting good charitable works, the proceeds (after deducting overheads) from this contest will be donated to A New Vision in support of their setting-up of an eye centre in Indonesia.
