Use common sense and avoid anything that may put you at risk of infection or an eye injury. For example, don’t lift anything heavy (more than 10kg) or expose your eye to a dirty or dusty environment like the garden, work-shop, or dusty cupboard.
Don’t perform activities that are vigorous, e.g. running, or that could put your eye at risk of a bump.
Avoid travel to a remote area where you are unable to access eye care quickly.
At all times you must remember – DO NOT RUB YOUR EYE!
