If you want to play Holi with bright colors, green, red, black, yellow and bright colors on Holi, be careful.  Because every year on Holi, more than 1000 people face problems due to chemical-rich dyes in their eyes, ophthalmologists and dermatologists believe that dangerous elements such as zinc, lead, mica, silica, potassium, chromium present in bright colors are harmful to the eyes and eyes.  Very dangerous for the skin.  It is advisable to play Holi with natural colors only.
Direct effect on eyesight
According to ophthalmologist Dr. Garg, it is very important to protect the eyes from chemical-rich colors on Holi.  There is a serious risk of allergic reactions due to the chemical elements present in the colors getting into the eyes.  If cleaning is not done immediately, then sometimes there is a risk of loss of eyesight.  He told that every year more than one thousand people come to the hospitals in such a way, in whose eyes the chemical-rich color falls while playing Holi.  Many people get their treatment outside the district as well.
These elements make the colors harmful
According to doctors, two types of problems arise from the chemical elements lead, chromium, silica, potassium present in the colors.  The first effect is irritant contact dermatitis (ICD) visible immediately after playing Holi, which is characterized by severe itching in the body and burning in the eyes.  The second effect is visible in the form of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD).  Its far-reaching consequences are visible.  During playing Holi, if chemical-rich colors enter the body, then there is swelling.  In such a situation, it is better to play Holi with herbal colors by avoiding dangerous bright colors during Holi.
