If a child watches the TV with a very little distance or he is not able to see clearly on blackboard or writes after bending too much, it shows that headache is due to eye troubles. If parents use goggles for vision, children must be examined for any eye troubles at regular interval. Headache is cured after using adequate lens goggle and due eye care. One must give healthy food to children which contains a lot of vitamin A, such as carrots etc.

Headache in young generation –

Working for long hours in front of computer without giving a break can give eye pain, head pain and fatigue, this is called computer vision syndrome. Cure of eyes is using adequate eye drops and using exact lens in goggles to correct the vision. In eyes, there are 6 major muscles that give movement to eyeballs in different directions. If there is lack of coordination in muscles due to any reason, it may give rise to headache. Conversion exercises may cure this type of eye problems.

Headache in elders –

After the age of 40, change in size of eyeball, defect in vision, fast change in no of lens, cataract and swelling in eye muscles can be main reasons behind headache.

So, to save oneself from cataract, one should undergo complete eye test and thereafter every 6 or 8 months one should keeping on checking. Acute glaucoma conditions reduces vision very fast, vomit and headache in half portion of head are the common symptoms.
