  1. Computer Eye Strain Canada Presented by Empress Eye Clinic

  2. Introduction Computer Eyestrain is an increasingly common condition as digital devices become more ingrained into our daily lives. Digital eye strain, eye fatigue and computer vision syndrome (CVS) are conditions that results from extended exposure to digital screens such as computers, smartphones, tablets and televisions from a combination of factors including the blue lights emitted from the devices and the pixelated content that is difficult for our eyes to focus.

  3. Eyestrain Headaches Blurred or Double Vision Dry or Watery Eyes Red or Irritated Eyes Difficulty Focusing Sensitivity to Light Neck, Shoulder or Back Pain Physical and Mental Fatigue Some Symptoms of Computer Vision Syndrome

  4. Alleviating Digital EyeStrain Proper Lighting and Screen Brightness Reduce Glare Screen Size and Distance Keep Eyes Moist Wear Computer Glasses

  5. Proper Lighting and Screen Brightness You want the screen to be as bright as the surrounding environment or the brightest object in the room. Therefore interior lighting or sunlight from the outdoors should be dimmed or blocked. Use fewer light fixtures or lower voltage light bulbs and close curtains or blinds when possible.

  6. Reduce Glare Glare is a significant cause of computer eyestrain so it is important to minimize it as much as possible. Set up your computer where glare from windows won’t affect your screen or cover windows when this is not possible. Glare can also reflect from walls and shiny finishes on desks and other surfaces.

  7. Screen Size and Distance You want to make sure you are using a high quality (such as a flat LCD) screen that has a relatively large display (look for a diagonal screen size of at least 19 inches) and is located directly in front of your line of vision. Your viewing distance should be about an arm’s length away with the top of the monitor at about eye level or slightly below.

  8. Keep Eyes Moist When viewing a digital screen or monitor for an extended period of time, we tend to blink less frequently (about ⅓ as often as we should). Blinking however, is critical for keeping the eyes moist, which allows them to remain clear and comfortable and to avoid dry eyes, irritation, blurry vision or eye fatigue.

  9. Give Your Eyes a Break Schedule and take frequent breaks from your screen. Follow the 20-20-20 rule; every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Take this time to stand up and stretch your back, neck and legs as well.
