Eye Care for Remote Workers: Tips for Screen Time
Definition / Introduction:
Working from home means convenience—but it also means staring at screens for hours without breaks. Over time, this leads to Digital Eye Strain (also called Computer Vision Syndrome), which affects your focus, comfort, and long-term vision.
Related Eye Challenges Remote Workers Face:
🔹 Dry eyes from reduced blinking
🔹 Blurry vision after prolonged work
🔹 Headaches or neck strain
🔹 Eye fatigue and difficulty focusing at a distance
🔹 Increased risk of long-term sight issues
Prevention & Wellness Tips from Enny Eye Care:
Use the 20-20-20 Rule – Every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
Stay Hydrated & Blink Often – Screen time reduces natural blinking.
Adjust Screen Settings – Use blue light filters and increase font size.
Optimize Your Setup – Screen at eye level, with proper lighting.
Use Anti-reflective Glasses – We can prescribe lenses with screen protection.
Fun Fact:
People blink 66% less when using digital devices—this directly contributes to dry, irritated eyes.
When It Becomes Serious:
If you notice persistent blurry vision, eye pain, or severe fatigue, don’t ignore it. These could indicate digital eye strain, dry eye syndrome, or early signs of refractive errors.
