In today’s digital world, we rely heavily on screens for work, entertainment, and communication. From scrolling on smartphones to spending hours on laptops, digital devices have become a necessity. However, prolonged screen time can lead to Digital Eye Strain (Computer Vision Syndrome), causing discomfort and long-term eye fatigue.
🛑 Symptoms of Digital Eye Strain
- Eye discomfort (tired, irritated eyes)
- Dryness & redness due to reduced blinking
- Blurry vision or trouble focusing
- Frequent headaches & migraines
- Neck & shoulder pain from poor posture
- Increased light sensitivity
These symptoms occur because screens force our eyes to work harder, leading to strain and discomfort over time.
🔍 Causes of Digital Eye Strain
💻 Prolonged screen exposure without breaks
💡 Blue light emission affecting eye health and sleep
😐 Reduced blinking (we blink 50% less while using screens)
📏 Improper screen positioning leading to neck & back pain
🌑 High screen brightness or glare
💡 Simple Tips to Reduce Eye Strain
✅ Follow the 20-20-20 rule – Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
✅ Use anti-glare screens & blue light filters to minimize strain.
✅ Adjust brightness & contrast to suit your environment.
✅ Blink more frequently to keep eyes moist and reduce dryness.
✅ Maintain a proper sitting posture with screens at eye level and a comfortable distance.
✅ Take frequent breaks and avoid screen exposure before bedtime.
👨⚕️ When to See an Eye Doctor?
