A new year is a time for reprioritizing. To encourage consumers to make their eyes a priority this year, AllAboutVision.com has issued its 2012 Checklist for Better Vision & Eye Health.
“We often read about surveys where consumers cite vision as the most valued of their senses, yet time and again, there is a disconnect between what people say and how they act”
The Checklist includes 21 simple steps people can take to better their long-term eye health, improve their visual acuity and comfort, and upgrade their appearance.
"We often read about surveys where consumers cite vision as the most valued of their senses, yet time and again, there is a disconnect between what people say and how they act," said Gary Heiting, O.D., Associate Editor of AllAboutVision.com. "In 2012, we'd like to see people put their beliefs into action with positive steps such as scheduling regular eye exams."
"Anybody who's been to a gym in January knows it's a time when people are thinking about looking and feeling better," said Liz Segre, Editorial Director of the website. "Yet the same person who wants to drop ten pounds may not consider how the right vision correction can make them look more attractive as well as help them perform better, both mentally and physically."
