The 20-20-20 rule for tired eyes

Long hours on screens make us blink less, which dries and tires the eyes.

Every 20 minutes, look at something about 20 feet (6 metres) away for at least 20 seconds. Blink fully and often. Keep the screen slightly below eye level and avoid glare.

If strain, headaches or blurred vision continue, get your eyes checked. You may need glasses or treatment for dry eye.
