Many people have a hard time maintaining their
health. There are so many different things to monitor and manage! However, your
smartphone can help you be your personal best without any stress. Here are a
few apps that will keep you healthy from head to toe.
Vision Test
Worsening vision is a
problem we associate with old age, but it begins to gradually occur when people
are relatively young. Changes in vision often go unnoticed because they happen
so slowly. Unfortunately, this means that many people are unaware that they
need vision aids such as glasses or laser eye surgery. In addition, changes in
vision can be a symptom of various diseases and health problems, meaning a trip
to the doctor could be needed. This app offers a variety of vision tests to
help make sure your eyesight is up to par.

Dosecast
It can be difficult to
keep track of medications, vitamins, supplements, and other health treatments.
Dosecast makes it easy by reminding you to follow through. No longer do you
need to worry about whether you missed a pill! The app does not only remind you
to take pills, but to follow through on any health treatment. In one of the
reviews, a user reports that this helped him to use eye drops after his laser
eye surgery, ensuring a good result with no complications.
