In what way can i protect my eyes from computer screens?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most common: problem is dry eyes causing symptoms of irritation and burning. Use artificial tears often while using the computer and take frequent breaks. People commonly stare when using the computer and don't blink frequently enough.
