Mumbai - With Diwali comes the feeling of festivity and joy. This season of lights gets the entire family together, no matter how far apart they might be by distance. Apart from the ladoos and diyas, the fire crackers are the next main attraction during this festival. The bombs, rockets and sparkles fill up the streets during Diwali. In all of this fun, there are serious dangers with the crackers that come along uninvited.

The latest survey posted by an independent research organization revealed the following shocking facts

• More than one third of the firework caused eye injuries immediately results into permanent vision damage
• More than one fourth of such patients turn blind with permanent loss of vision
• One in twenty eye injury cases caused by the fireworks requires the affected eye to be removed
• The rockets, bombs and sparkles are the most common firecrackers that cause eye injuries

So does this mean a complete no-no to the fireworks? ‘A little cautiousness along with being alert at all times is the key to enjoy a safe and happy Diwali with firecrackers’ says Pankaj Shah from Sunglassesindia.com.
‘Our eyes are a gift that must be treasured and taken care of, children can be educated about the dangers of being careless with the firecrackers, however, since they are kids they will still not show adequate signs of alertness. Thus, never leave children unattended even for a single minute while they are playing with crackers’ he adds.

Truly quoted, our eyes are indeed the most precious and delicate parts of our body that cannot be compromised on. Thus, by being a little thoughtful, Diwali can be fun and completely safe as well. A few tips if kept in mind can help promote the festive feeling without any unwanted consequences.

Tip 1 – Keep a distance of at least hundred feet from the cracker when it is being lit up and about to explode. Do not by any means touch or pick up a firework immediately after it fails to explode, you never know if it is a flop cracker for sure until a few minutes later.

Tip 2 – Light the crackers much away from sensitive places like the electricity main board of the society, near the parking lot and any place that has wires freely hanging.

Tip 3 – Wearing clear driving sunglasses – Safety glasses can really help while bursting fire crackers, as this prevents the particles like smoke, smog, flying flames etc. from entering the eyes.

Tip 4 - Empathize towards those who are just by standers or passer bys, do not light up the firecracker if you see a person trying to walk through the same route, this can catch them off guard or even explode right on their face.

Simple tips like these can help reduce the cases of eye injuries or any other kind of mishaps during the bright festival of Diwali.
