These oranges are divided into two equal halves and placed on the eyes when I'm lying down facing vertical direction. Although cucumbers is widely used in place of oranges, it serves the same purpose of helping your eyes absorb light. How? Vitamin A present in oranges which is rich in carotenoid helps in keeping the mucus membrane in the eyes healthy and prevents age-related mascular degeneration.

High in Vitamin C
Statistics have shown that a single orange offers 116.2% of vitamin C. This vitamin C can help get off free radicals that causes damage to our DNA and also helps in reducing colon cancer. Asides Vitamin C, orange is rich in folate which helps in DNA synthesis and also rich in potassium which regulates blood pressure and prevents bone loss.
Personally, oranges has helped in healing wounds like sour throat or wound in the gum as vitamin C would have done.
