Have you ever been staring at a computer screen for more than two hours? Computers can make us more efficient, but they also have disadvantages: staring at a computer screen for a long time will make you suffer from 'computer vision syndrome'.
The symptom is that the eyes feel tired and sore after sitting in front of the computer screen one day, and the "computer vision syndrome" plagues 64% - 90% of office workers. This symptom may not cause permanent eye damage, but it can still make people who often use computers uncomfortable. The most common symptoms of "computer vision syndrome" include tired eyes, redness, irritation, dryness, burning sensation, blurred vision, double vision, headache and neck and shoulder pain after using the computer.
You don't need to close your eyes to relax
The easiest and most effective way to prevent eye fatigue is to make sure your eyes are off the screen and rest. Because different types of muscles control different areas of the eye, you don't have to close your eyes to rest, you just need to change your vision. If you've been staring at the screen for too long, look up. Look out the window for a moment, stand up and walk around the house or go for a walk. Looking at something farther than your screen will help your eyes relax.
Ten quick ways to relieve eye fatigue
If you have symptoms of eye discomfort, here are some quick fixes:

Blinking is important because it provides water to the eye to prevent itching or dryness.

Enter the computer display settings and make necessary adjustments.

Don't stare at the computer for a long time or sit still for a few hours.

If your computer screen is confined to a corner of a small space, try to move the monitor to an area where your eyes can be far away from the monitor.
(6) eliminate glare
Glare from a computer screen, wall, window, or any reflective surface can cause eye strain. If possible, install an anti glare screen on the monitor to cover the reflective source as much as possible. If you are not ready, you should pull down the blinds or curtains to minimize the glare caused by outdoor sunlight.

Simple eye exercises can prevent or reduce eye fatigue.
