How to protect your eyes from prolonged screen use

Protect your eyes with CARBOSOL®!

In the digital age, our lives are shaped by intensive screen use, whether for work, entertainment, or communication. Computers, smartphones, tablets—these devices are omnipresent, but overuse is not without consequences for our eyes. Dry eyes, visual fatigue, and increased light sensitivity have become common health issues. So, how can you protect your eyes from this prolonged exposure?

The consequences of prolonged screen exposure

Spending several hours a day in front of a screen changes our eye behavior. Did you know that, on average, we blink 30-50% less when staring at a screen? This reduces our eyes’ natural hydration, causing dry eyes and other unpleasant symptoms.

Here are some common consequences of excessive screen exposure:

  • Dry Eyes: feeling of sand in the eyes, stinging, redness.
  • Blurred Vision: difficulty focusing after long hours of screen work.
  • Visual Fatigue: heavy eyes, tension in the eye muscles.
  • Increased Light Sensitivity: difficulty tolerating screen light or even natural light.

These often-underestimated symptoms can impact not only our daily comfort but also our productivity at work and overall well-being.

Simple solutions to protect your eyes

To avoid these discomforts, here are a few easy tips to apply daily:

1. Follow the 20-20-20 rule

This rule is a simple and effective way to rest your eyes while continuing to use screens. Every 20 minutes, look at an object about 20 feet (6 meters) away for at least 20 seconds. This helps relieve eye strain and reduces visual fatigue.

2. Blink consciously

As mentioned earlier, staring at a screen reduces our blink rate. Try to blink consciously to help maintain your eyes’ natural hydration and prevent dryness.

3. Adjust screen brightness

Excessively bright or dim screens can strain your eyes. Ensure that your workspace lighting is well-suited and that your screens are neither too bright nor too dim. Using a blue-light filter can also help protect your eyes from the harmful effects of blue light emitted by screens.

4. Take regular breaks

In addition to the 20-20-20 rule, try to take short breaks every hour. This can be as simple as standing up, stretching, and looking away from the screen for a few minutes.

5. Hydrate your eyes with CARBOSOL®
