Are you looking for last minute eye care gifts to help that special loved one see, live and enjoy their best lives in 2021. You’ve come to the right place! In this blog we will advise you on Christmas present ideas that could help those with low vision.
Christmas Food Hamper
A hamper full of yummy and healthy fruits and vegetables would be a great Christmas present to keep those eye balls healthy. Pick citrus fruits packed with vitamin C and vegetables like carrots and broccoli, which are full of vitamin A and vitamin E respectively. It wouldn’t be Christmas without the nutcracker and some nuts.
So fill the hamper with nuts like peanuts, walnuts, and almonds, each offering great nutrients for your eyes and overall health. Sunflower seeds can help keep the eyes healthy too so add these too.
See our blog about ‘Food for Good Eyesight‘ here for more ideas.
Large Print Playing Cards
Fancy a card game this Christmas. Play Solitaire on your own or if you are in a social bubble you can play a great variety of group card games such as Whist and Rummy etc. The large print on the playing cards makes the cards easier to hold and see for everyone playing.
