In today’s digital world, eye fatigue is common. It is caused due to extended periods of work on the computer screen, which is unavoidable in most places. However, this can be treated by simple rest and following simple rules at work by Dr Neeraj Sanduja.
While working on the computers, the lighting should be low intensity, as the eyes will have to work harder if the screen light is bright.
This is a standard, take a 20-second break and look at objects 20ft away. This provides rest to our eye muscles.
Using antiglare screens or using antiglare coating on our spectacles will reduce eye strain.
Adjusting the setting of our screen so that the contrast is higher and the brightness is ambient will reduce eye strain.
One can adjust the settings on our monitor so the colours are more in red/orange hues and the blue light emitted is less. Using blue light cut lenses in our spectacles also helps.
This is important as it helps to moisten the eyes and prevent dryness.
The screen should be at least at arm's length, and the desk's height should be such that the screen level is equal to our eye level to avoid bending the neck.
This is important to ensure we wear the correct prescription lenses to minimize eye strain.
