Keep proper eye posture: When using electronic equipment, keep proper sitting posture and screen height to reduce eye fatigue. The screen should be below eye level, about 20-30 inches away.
Use correct lighting: Ensure that the working and reading environment is full of natural light or soft indoor lighting, and avoid strong reflections and shadows.
Regular rest: after using your eyes for a long time, stay away from the screen every 20 minutes and look at the distant scenery. This is the so-called "20-20-20 rule": look at objects 20 feet away every 20 minutes for 20 seconds.
Correct use of glasses or contact lenses: If you have already worn glasses or contact lenses, you must wear and maintain them according to the doctor's advice, and do not exceed the prescribed time.
Keep your eyes moist properly: In a dry environment, you can use artificial tears to keep your eyes moist and relieve the symptoms of dry eyes.
Control screen brightness and contrast: adjust the screen brightness and contrast of electronic equipment to adapt to the surrounding environment and reduce the burden on eyes.
Good eating habits: Take vitamins A, C and E, as well as Omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients beneficial to eye health.
Avoid using eyes at close range for a long time: Try to avoid using eyes at close range such as reading books, playing mobile phones and computers for a long time, and give your eyes enough rest time.
Quit smoking: Smoking increases the risk of eye diseases, including macular degeneration and cataracts.
Regular eye examination: Conduct regular eye examination every year to find and deal with any eye problems in time.
Wear goggles: If you are engaged in activities that need eye protection, such as carpentry and welding, you must wear appropriate goggles.
Protect your eyes from UV rays: Wear UV-resistant sunglasses in strong sunlight.
To sum up, you can effectively protect eye health through correct eye habits, appropriate environmental settings and a healthy lifestyle. If you have any eye discomfort or problems, you'd better see a doctor in time.
