How to relieve eye fatigue?

Eye strain is common, especially after prolonged computer use, reading, or other attention-grabbing tasks. To help alleviate this condition, try these traditional tips:

1. 20-20-20 rule: Look at an object 20 feet (about 6 meters) away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes. This can help your eye muscles relax.

2. Increase blink frequency: When using a computer or reading, you may blink less frequently, which can lead to dry eyes. Blink regularly to help your eyes naturally lubricate.

3. Good lighting: Make sure your work area is well-lit. Position the light source correctly to avoid glare and shadows.

4. Screen adjustments: Keep your computer screen at eye level and about 20 to 25 inches away. Also, adjust the screen brightness to suit your surroundings.

5. Take short breaks: Take short breaks at regular intervals to avoid focusing on the same task for long periods of time.

6. Moisturizing eye drops: You can use moisturizing eye drops from your pharmacist to help relieve the fatigue caused by dry eyes.

I hope these suggestions help relieve your eye fatigue. However, if your condition persists, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation.
