Give your Eyes a Rest
Most jobs in today’s society require the use of a computer.
If you sit in front of a computer all day or work any job or hobby that requires your eyes to work hard, be sure to take breaks throughout your day.
For soothing relief, you can use eye drops, close your eyes for a few minutes to allow them to rest, and look away to something other than what you are working on.
Also, ensure that you are working with appropriate lighting, which is an oversight many people make.
These are ways in which to give your eyes a much-needed break.
Eyestrain can cause eye problems as well as headaches.
