Is your vision becoming increasingly blurry? Apply the 20-20-20 rule
The 20-20-20 rule helps alleviate digital eye strain by encouraging breaks from screens. Developed by Dr. Jeffrey Anshel, it suggests looking at an object 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes. Symptoms of digital eye strain include dryness, itching, and blurred vision, affecting many, especially children during the pandemic. Experts recommend additional measures like proper screen distance, humidity, and outdoor play for children to reduce myopia risk. Regular eye care is essential, and persistent issues should be addressed by an eye specialist.
