⮚ The eye is like a camera but with more selfies 

⮚ The cornea is the only part of the body that has no blood supply yet incredibly sensitive and detects even the slightest change in pressure.  

⮚ Your eyelashes fall out every 3-5 months and grow back at varying length and thickness. 

 ⮚ The human eye can process over 36,000 bits of information every hour and can focus on a new object faster than a camera’s shutter. 

⮚ The human eye can distinguish between over 10 million different colors 

⮚ Just like fingerprints, no two iris patterns are identical.  

⮚ The upper eyelid holds about 100-150 lashes with the lower 50-75. This can be affected by hormonal changes, excessive makeup, harsh chemicals and certain medications.  

Let’s be real, we take way too many selfies daily, scanning the environment about 3-4 times per second.  

⮚ The eye has a “mind of its own”- have you ever tried to stare at something but your eyes just won’t cooperate? I guess that’s when we get “goopy” from too much screen time.  

⮚ Citrus fruits, greens, tomatoes, bananas, nuts soursop, apples, carrots, beets, peach, strawberries reduce the risk of eye defect. Take care of your peepers; they are windows to your world! Your eyes, My concern!
