More about computer eyestrain
Written by Renee Bachner | 0 commentsIn the past few years the way we do work, communicate, entertain, keep ourselves informed and just about everything else has almost completely shifted to the computer or some version of it. If we are not on our phones we are on our computers or other related devices so it only stands to reason that eyestrain has become a commonplace ailment with often debilitating affects. Working at computers can cause many eye-related symptoms such as eyestrain, dry eyes, headache, fatigue, difficulty focusing, blurred vision, and shoulder and neck pain.
Taking frequent breaks will help reduce computer eyestrain but for many people that is not a realistic option. Making adjustments to your work environment and optimizing computer monitor settings will also help. If you’re not getting any relief from those changes then it’s time to get computer reading glasses. In order for your computer reading glasses to really help you it's important to determine the correct lens strength which is specific to your reading distance.
