How can an office tie be bad for you?
Neck Ties have long been considered the symbol of professionalism! And is usually, the first thing that comes to mind, whenever one wants to dress up for office. But did you know that these ties if worn tight can cause blindness! Quite Shocking, but true! Researchers point out that even the ‘slightly uncomfortable ties’ were enough to put pressure on the jugular vein of the wearer, thereby interrupting the return blood flow from head to the heart. This leads to increase in the fluid pressure in the eyeball and causes damage to the retina, leading to glaucoma which in turn causes irreversible blindness.
Our advice: Wear the tie, only when necessary and if the situation warrants wearing a tie compulsorily, loosen it up, after a while.
