Your problem may be 'Computer Vision Syndrome'. It is also called Digital Eye Strain. For long periods of time, people who use laptops, tablets and smartphones can have these problems, according to the American Optometric Association.

The problem may increase due to insufficient lighting in the office, lighting of the screen and not properly sitting. It may also cause dry eye problems. The average number of eyelids we take in normal time is 66 percent less in front of the screen. For this reason the eyes become dry, it is known from the University of Iowa Health Care report.

So the eyes are tired due to the screen, but is it responsible for the bad eyesight? No, said Melanie at Schmidt He is an assistant professor of ophthalmology at the University of Wisconsin.

Nowadays, the problem of Mayopia is more, but researchers are still not sure whether it is for the screen. There is a hereditary cause behind it, not spending enough time outside and even sleep problems.

While reading any website or watching Instagram, small muscles around the eye work to bring these things to focus. If you take this task for a long time, you feel the tiredness of the eye. According to the Mayo Clinic, there is no long-term effects.

A recent study from Madrid, shows that the LED light can damage the rat's retina. This light is used on the screen.

By adhering to the 20-20-20 rule, you can reduce your eyesight. After 20 minutes of work on the screen, 20 feet of the distance looking at something 20 seconds.

In addition to this, you can reduce the screen of the computer screen and use eye drops to be free from dry eyes. But it may be the best way to spend some time outdoors and look at nature.
