What Is Computer Vision Syndrome?
It is the name given to the effect looking at a computer screen or other type of screen has on the eyes. Many people will look at a computer screen for extended amounts of time without looking away or blinking. Added blue screen and computer screen brightness can also make the symptoms worse. These symptoms may include:
- Headaches
- Blurry vision
- Dry eyes
- Itchy eyes
- Eye strain
- Inability to focus
These symptoms might indicate that you need help from an eye doctor to resolve your symptoms if you cannot find relief on your own.
How Can an Eye Doctor Help Me?
Our optometrist on our optometry team can provide you with treatment options for your condition. Our doctor will first conduct an eye exam and ask questions about your symptoms to ensure that they are truly due to this eye condition and not something else.
We can then help prescribe eyeglasses or even contact lenses with blue light filters to help keep away harmful blue light from your eyes. We can also give you lifestyle advice, such as taking breaks from the computer screen while working. Combining changes in computer use habits along with eyeglasses and contacts is a good way to ensure you're protected from this eye condition.
