Cherish Your Eyes

-

The brilliant rays from the sun, the beauty of a rainbow after the rain…our eyes are the precious portals to the wonders of the world. Many times people take vision for granted and fail to get regular checks. Whether someone is overdue for a visit to the optician or ophthalmol­ogist, or if they are ready to try contact lenses or simply need to update their look with new frames, we all should cherish our eyes.

Our eyes are our most precious assets. At times we may take it for granted, but our eyes speak a universal language. When we are happy, sad or upset, without even moving our lips, our eyes can tell an entire story. After a long day at work or on the road tired eyes need rest; after a great movie eyes may seem glossy because blinking is the body’s way of cleaning the surface, providing moisture when needed,

As the days become increasing­ly stressful for those who study or work there is more stress on our eyes. Even in casual activities people need to be made aware that our eyes are precious. The Jamaica Observer Limited invites you to enjoy our supplement “CHERISH YOUR EYES” and continue to take care of our portals to the world. Precious Eyes

Why does the eye see a thing more clearly in dreams than the imaginatio­n when awake? Leonardo da Vinci

Eyes have often been considered as the mirrors of the heart, but many times without us knowing, our eyes also show our thoughts and even our intentions. We can try to hide our emotions but our eyes will know how we feel. Women use glittering eyes to captivate their audience in the same way men can stare down their subject into submission. The power of our eyes has always been documented, even famous sayings like: “Love at first sight” or “Seeing is believing” both depend on one (1) common fact.

Eyes are precious to us. Just as the sense of touch can give a multitude of informatio­n about texture, temperatur­e and size of an object, our eyes give our brains informatio­n like colour, shape and even distance. What Colour Are Your Eyes

Most common eye colours are brown, hazel, grey and blue. You can see some different and beautiful eyes, which speak more to you. If you are really talented you can understand what they are coming to say. Have a long deep stare and enjoy the silent conversati­ons.

Did You Know? The rarest eye colours are amber, green, violet, red and black.
