If you've ever had smoke blown in your eyes
you know it can dry out your eyes and
it makes you very irritated. It's something
you generally want to avoid smog. If you
hadn't known already by the 12,000 plus
times we blink on average a day, we blink
because our eyes need moisture almost
constantly. Smog is something that causes
ours to get very irritated and can, if long
enough, cause some vision problems.
In Beijing, China they have one of the highest
smog pollution rates in the world and they have
many people who have medical problems from
this pollution. Imagine smoke getting blown in
your eyes right now, then Imagine living in Beijing
and having that same feeling frequently. Doesn't feel
good does it? Well smog isn't good for your eyes
and you should stay away from it as much as possible.
