General

Vacations are all about relaxation and new adventures—but keeping your eyes comfortable and healthy should still be on your checklist. Whether you’re flying across the country or road-tripping up north, a few simple travel eye care tips can help you enjoy a smooth journey.

Pack Smart for Healthy Eyes

Airplane air can be dry, making lubricating eye drops a must for long flights. If you wear contacts, always bring your case, solution, and a backup pair of glasses in case of unexpected delays. Sunglasses with UV protection are another essential for your summer trip—protecting against sun damage while you explore.

Stay Comfortable on the Go

Keep your eyes hydrated by drinking plenty of water, and give your eyes a break from screens during travel. If you notice irritation, resist rubbing your eyes, which can make symptoms worse.

Put Eye Health First

A little preparation goes a long way toward protecting your vision while you’re on the move. For personalized eye health tips before your travels, schedule an appointment with Minnesota Eye Consultants.
