The human eye consists of intricate structures that enable the process of vision. This complex system involves the cornea, iris, lens, retina, and optic nerve, all working together to capture, focus, and transmit visual information to the brain. Vision problems can arise from various factors, such as refractive errors (e.g., myopia and hyperopia), eye diseases (e.g., glaucoma and cataracts), and injuries. Regular eye examinations are essential to detect and address these issues promptly. Eye care encompasses a wide range of practices and services aimed at maintaining eye health and preserving vision. Key elements of eye care include routine eye exams, proper nutrition, eye protection, and eye hygiene. Additionally, lifestyle factors like limiting screen time, protecting eyes from harmful UV radiation, and not smoking can significantly impact eye health. Timely diagnosis and treatment of eye conditions, as well as corrective measures such as glasses or contact lenses, play a vital role in enhancing visual acuity and quality of life. This abstract emphasizes the importance of eye and eye care in maintaining overall health and quality of life. A comprehensive understanding of the eye's structure, function, and common issues, along with proactive eye care practices, can help individuals enjoy a lifetime of clear and comfortable vision.
