According to a study published on Legal and Criminological Psychology, by researchers of University of Surrey di Guildford (United Kingdom), to close eyes stimulates memory and it helps to remember with greater precision the details of a moment.

The research, divided in two phases, involved 178 volunteers : during first phase the participants watched a movie, and, afterwards, they replied to 17 questions about it. Before the interview, the subjects  had been divided into 4 groups: the first had to reply with eyes open, the second with eyes closed, the third established a friendly relationship with the interviewer, the fourth didn't.

It came out that those who replied with eyes closed and those who established a relationship with the interviewer, supplied about 75% of the correct answers, while the others only 41% .

During the second phase, it has bee asked to the participants to report what they had listened during the fake crime scene. Once more, those who replied with eyes closed and those who had established a good relationship with interviewer, supplied more details.

So, the experiments show that , to close the eyes or feeling at ease during an examination or a simple question, improves the possibilities of remebering an event. " To close the eyes helps, because it eliminates distractions" , explains Robert Nash, that has guided the study, he adds also that to close the eyes it helps not only to visualize an event, but also to remeber the sounds.

If you are contact lenses bearers, probably you have been told about risks for health if contact lenses are worn for too long or if they are washed in an inappropriate way (or rarely) .But, a recent study carried out by  NYU Langone Medical Center remind us on how truly is a bad idea to use non adequately washed hands, to remove them or to wear with them on. The study revealed that in the eyes of contact lenses bearers live various species of bacteria with respect of non bearers, amongst bacteria there can be a kind related to ocular ulcers.

For this sudy, researches have examinated the eyes of 20 subjects- 9 contact lenses bearers, and 11 non- bearers- to examinate the species of bacteria present in their eyes. Those who wear contact lenses have a major concentration of four species of bacteria : Lactobacillus, Acinetobacter, Methylobacterium, and Pseudomonas, the last one is commonly related to corneal ulcers.

What can be done, then, to keep away the infections from eyes?

Clean the hands, and then, lenses

Wash your heands with soap before touching lensesn. Tehn, clean the lenses and keep away dirt and dangerous bacteria putting them in the palm, rinsing delicately the inertnal part eith a cleaning solution.

Take into account different kinds of lenses

The smooth contact lenses with daily change seem to be a good solution to avoid those problems. there are may bacteria that can enter into the eyes when using a new serie of contact lenses every day. So, if you aren't so diligent in lenses cleaning, the daily lenses ( that have no maintenance) coual be the more suitable solution.

Take a period of relax

The best way to avoid eyes troubles or something more serious, is to wear glasses when possible. use contact lenses only during working day ( if you aren't always in fornt of computer!) and wear glasses at home and during week ends, reducing the time of wearing of contact  lenses to 12-14 hours per day at maximum. Extremely improtant is to not swim with contact lenses on, the swimming pool wate ris reach in dangerous bacteria that can deposit on your contact lenses.

Remember: the glasses are always a fashion accessory!
