Eye health in front of the screen
Dear Golden Care Members,
In recent times society has had to adapt to new lifestyles which increase the demands on our eyes. Whether we are communicating with colleagues, working, calling our friends and family, or enjoying ourselves while watching a movie, our eyes are constantly working.
