Spending long hours in front of a computer can leave your eyes feeling dry, tired, irritated, or blurry.
When we concentrate on a screen, we tend to blink less frequently. This can make the tear film less stable and increase moisture loss from the surface of the eye.
A few simple habits can help:
• Take regular breaks from continuous screen use
• Follow the 20-20-20 rule
• Make a conscious effort to blink fully
• Keep your screen slightly below eye level
• Avoid direct airflow from fans or air conditioning
If dryness, blurred vision, or eye discomfort continues despite these changes, consider having your eyes evaluated by an eye specialist.
