Staring at computer screens can cause dryness, redness, and discomfort. Remember to blink on a regular basis.
Massage the area around the eyes to relax the muscles. Rub your hands together to generate warmth, then cup your palms over your closed eyes and place them there.
Keep your monitor bright to reduce the flicker rate of the computer, which can reduce eye fatigue.
Make sure that your monitor has a high-resolution display. Higher resolution results in clearer type and cleaner visuals, which reduces eye strain.
Place your computer display 20 to 26 inches (64 to 66 centimetres) away from your head, at a height that allows you to see the centre of the screen.
Clean your monitor on a regular basis to remove dust, and consider installing an anti-glare screen. It also aids in preventing glare from outside sources by keeping shades drawn.
Replace your regular glasses with anti-reflective coatings or special lenses, which helps in minimising glare on your computer screen.
It is important to take frequent breaks if you work at a computer all day.
Use the 20-20-20 rule: take a 20-second break every 20 minutes and look at anything 20 feet away.
Not getting enough water might exacerbate the discomfort in your eyes, especially if you're staring at a computer screen for a long time.
