Everything you need to know about eye strain and how to get rid of it

Our eyes will easily get tired when we have to adjust a lot, such as when driving a long distance or gazing at computer screens and other digital devices for a long time.

 

Some symptoms of eye strain include:

- Eye pain, tired eyes, burning or itchy eyes

- Watery or dry eyes

- Blurred vision

- Neck, shoulder, back pain or headache

- Difficulty in concentrating and opening eyes

Eye strain can occur after focusing on a certain point for a long time.

 

Cause of eye strain

One of the biggest causes of eye strain is the daily use of digital devices for hours at a time. Several studies have shown that more than 87% of Americans use one or more digital devices for more than two hours a day. More than 76.5% of American children focus on screens for more than two hours a day.

 

Diseases caused by eye strain

Blue light can be harmful if you use digital devices for a long period of time without rest. This can lead to eye damage such as:

- Retinal diseases

- Cataract

- Age-related macular degeneration

- Sleep disorders

Maintaining eye health is crucial to reduce more serious vision problems that may occur in the future. You should have your eyes checked regularly, especially if you experience frequent or persistent eye strain.

 

Eye care solutions

When using the computer and looking at the computer screen, you must blink many times to wet your eyes. Give your eyes a reasonable rest, maintain the 20-20-20 method, that is, after 20 minutes looking at the computer screen, you need to look away about 20 feet (6m) for 20 seconds, so that eye muscles are relaxed. Between working hours, you should rest your eyes for about 10-15 minutes, gently massage the area around the eyes.

Sitting with appropriate posture, which means your eyes are about 50-60cm away from the screen, the center of the screen is about 10-20cm lower than the eyes. And you should sit so that your hands are parallel to the floor, your legs are perpendicular to the ground, your back is straight and keep your shoulders balanced.
