To attain information on recreational activities within your communities, please visit your local city, town, or county recreation and/or elderly departments. there are usually a list of monthly activities. #VisionOnHealthyAging

[HHS OASH Region II @HHS_HealthReg2]

Get plenty of physical activity, which can boost mood, reduce stress, help u stay at a healthy weight — & protect u from serious eye disease! Anything that gets ur heart beating faster — like taking a quick walk or dancing — can help keep your eyes healthy. #VisionOnHealthyAging

Everyone age 50 or older should visit an eye care professional for a comprehensive dilated eye exam. Many eye diseases have no early warning signs or symptoms, but a dilated exam can detect eye diseases in their early stages before vision loss occurs. #VisionOnHealthyAging

[HHS OASH Region II @HHS_HealthReg2]

Since 40s, u probably noticed that your vision is changing. As u age, you are at higher risk of developing age-related eye diseases & conditions. These include: age-related macular degeneration, cataract, diabetic eye disease, glaucoma, low vision & dry eye. #VisionOnHealthyAging

[Andrea Zimmerman @DrZimmerman18]

@lighthousegld Comprehensive eye exams should be performed by licensed ophthalmologists or optometrists.

[Andrea Zimmerman @DrZimmerman18]

@lighthousegld Comprehensive eye exams are exams in which drops are used to assess the ocular health of the back of the eye. They are not exams just to determine the need for glasses

@lighthousegld Fitness benefits wellness, as documented by international research studies. Physical activity not only enhances the “big three” biomarkers (blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar) but also has positive effects on mood and memory. Group fitness can be even more enjoyable!

[Goddard Riverside #JustPay @GoddardRiv]

@lighthousegld The international FINGER study (based in Finland) found through a gold standard broad scale study that four practices improve health and memory: diet high in fiber and low in sugar, physical activity, regulation of cardiovascular health and cognitive exercises.

[Goddard Riverside #JustPay @GoddardRiv]

@lighthousegld Offer to do activities with older adults, such as sharing a healthy meal or taking a walk. Give your family member an opportunity to discuss what they enjoy and help them to locate those activities and to arrange for access and transportation.
