Computer Vision Treatment

When you spend a lot of time in front of a computer, as so many people do today, it can have effects on your vision. These problems can include eye fatigue and eye strain among other issues with your vision. When you need to see an optometrist, you can call us at Saline Optometry serving Saline, MI, or Chelsea Eyeglass Co. serving Chelsea, MI, for your optometry needs.

Developing Computer Vision

When people read text on a screen, it forces their eyes to work harder than they ordinarily would. Reading screen text is harder on the eyes than reading something in print, and it has a lot of effects on the eyes. One of these is that it causes eye strain from working so hard to make out what's on the screen. Another problem is that when looking at a screen, the eyes blink less often than they would otherwise. This can make the eyes dry and irritated and contribute to eye fatigue. 

Symptoms of Computer Vision

Eyes that feel tired and overworked may be affected by this syndrome. It can also cause red eyes, blurry vision, and double vision. Your eyes may feel dry and you may have itching or burning. They may be irritated and watery, and you may have eye fatigue. Computer vision can also cause headaches and pain in the neck and back. If you have any of these symptoms, it may be time to see the optometrist to get your eyes checked and to discuss treatment options that can help.

Help for Computer Vision

Many people find blue light eyeglasses to be helpful in these situations. Blue light eyeglasses block some of the harmful light from the screen and can lead to less eye strain. One treatment for this syndrome is to take visual breaks regularly by looking away from the screen. These breaks should be about every 20 minutes and last 20 seconds. During that time, you look at something that is 20 feet away. This allows your eyes to take a much-needed break from the screen often enough to relieve some of the symptoms. Doing this regularly can make a big difference in the way your eyes feel.
