attach importance to protect your eyesight
Posted By admin on June 12, 2009
God must be very concerned about His people having good vision, because He mentions the eyes more than 100 times in the Bible. And God promised in Psalm 91 that we will enjoy long life, and we’re not going to have a dim vision of life caused by vision thieves!
Your eyes are a delicate and sensitive part of your body. Aging, pollution, excessive strain and sun exposure can weaken or damage them, or they may be at risk for long-term vision problems due to disease. Right now, three out of four people suffer from a vision problem of some form.
Cataracts are the number one cause of impaired vision among people 65 or older, with half of America’s population developing cataracts between the ages of 65-74. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in people over 50; one in three people will be diagnosed with AMD by the time they are 75. Both of these serious eye diseases are thought to be associated with the effects of free radical damage, to which the eyes are particularly vulnerable.
