EYES PROBLEM DUE TO PHONE OR LAPTOP
Do Screens Make Your Eyesight Worse?
Digital Eye Strain (DES) is more common today than ever owing to the fact that virtually everybody uses a screen in daily life.
While not everyone spends every day looking at a computer screen , most people do use smartphones. Experts suggest that DES occurs in around 50% of computer users.
So, do screens make your eyesight worse? Well, the good news is the long run, but it does cause extreme discomfort and makes getting through a work day difficult.
HOW TO PROTECT EYES FROM COMPUTER SCREEN
1. Use The20/20/20 Rule
Your eyes aren't designed to stare all day at something directly in front of you. With the 20/20/20 rule, you give your eyes a much-needed break during long work days.
If you look at the screen for 20 minutes, you must look at something at least 20 feet away from you for 20 seconds. The longer you look away form you screen, though, the better!
2. Have Regular Eye Exams
Regular eye exams help you keep your eye health in check and ensure your problems aren't worse than normal eye strain. It also gives you a great opportunity to talk to an expert about your habits and eye health!
3.Ensure Your Room Is Well Lit
It may sound counterintuitive, but less light in your room is actually better for your eyes when you're working on a computer.
