A study conducted by a group of Indian specialists confirms that those who wear glasses enjoy more protection in the face of the Coronavirus pandemic than those who do not wear glasses.
The “Sunday Telegraph” newspaper stated that Indian scientists studied the situation of 304 people infected with Corona virus, and found that 19 percent of them wore glasses most of the time.
Scientists have reached the conclusion that those who wear glasses for eight hours a day are less likely to contract the Coronavirus, and the reason for this is that they touch their faces and eyes, less than others.
Earlier, French scientists discovered, with the help of magnetic resonance imaging, the presence of significant changes in the eyes of some patients with Covid-19 in its severe cases. And it turns out that there are abnormalities in the ball of the eye, especially in the back of the eye, that is, the area responsible for central vision.
