  • Maintain a balanced diet rich in antioxidants (found in leafy greens, carrots, citrus fruits, and berries) to support overall eye health and reduce inflammation.
  • Include omega-3 fatty acids from sources like fatty fish (salmon, sardines), flaxseeds, or walnuts, which may help reduce eye dryness and irritation.
  • Stay well-hydrated by drinking adequate water throughout the day to prevent eye dryness and maintain tear film stability.
  • Limit processed foods, refined sugars, and excessive salt, as these may worsen inflammation and discomfort.
  • Avoid known allergens or trigger foods that may contribute to allergic eye flare-ups, especially in cases of atopic eye disease.
  • Wear UV-protective sunglasses outdoors to reduce irritation and protect the eyes from sunlight exposure, which can worsen inflammation.
  • Practice good eye hygiene, including washing hands before touching your eyes and avoiding rubbing them to prevent irritation or infection.
  • Follow your doctor’s advice on using artificial tears or lubricating eye drops to keep the eyes moist and comfortable.
  • Avoid smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke, as this can aggravate eye inflammation and delay healing.
