How to prevent eyestrain?

With the progress of society and the gradual improvement of economic levels, the usage rate of various electronic products has also increased. People have gradually become dependent on mobile phones and computers. Staring at these screens for a long time will inevitably make the eyes feel sore and the vision will gradually begin to blur. So, how should we prevent eyestrain and protect our eyes? Here I will teach you some tips to prevent eyestrain.

1. Eye movement method

As the head rotates up, down, left, and right, the eyeballs move with it.

2. Blinking method

Tilt your head back and blink frequently to get the blood flowing. When your eyes are slightly tired, just blink 2 to 3 times.

3. Alternating hot and cold compresses

Soak one towel in hot water that is slightly hotter than bath water, and soak another towel in cold water with ice cubes. Place the hot towel on your eyes for about five minutes, and then place the cold towel on your eyes for five minutes.

4. Eye gymnastics

Point your middle finger between the eye sockets and the bridge of the nose, and rub your face back and forth with your palm for five minutes. Then slowly move your neck left and right, then close your eyes, and tap the back of your neck ten times with your fists.

5. Look far and near

Look into the distance for three minutes, then look at your palms for 1 to 2 minutes, and then look into the distance again. By switching between near and far views several times, you can effectively eliminate eyestrain.

6. Drink green tea to prevent radiation

Studies have shown that computer users can prevent radiation by drinking green tea (2-3 cups) or eating an orange every morning. Tea contains provitamin A, which is converted into vitamin A after being absorbed by the human body. Therefore, drinking some green tea every day can not only resist computer radiation, but also help protect eye vision. If you are not used to drinking green tea, you can also drink chrysanthemum tea.

The above are the prevention methods for eyestrain. Computer workers should avoid sitting and staring at computers for long periods of time and should keep a distance from computers. It is best to get up and move around, close your eyes and rest for a few minutes. If your eyes are dry, use some eye drops. You can do eye exercises regularly to refresh your brain and improve your eyesight. You can also eat more foods rich in vitamin C, which has the effect of protecting your eyes.
