Eye Care Tip #1 To avoid eye strain while working at your computer, you should do the following: -Sit about 25 inches from the computer screen and position the screen so your eye gaze is slightly downward. -Reduce glare from the screen by lighting the area properly; use a screen filter if needed. -Post a note that says “Blink!” on the computer as a reminder. -Every 20 minutes, shift your eyes to look at an object at least 20 feet away, for at least 20 seconds: the “20-20-20” rule. -Use artificial tears to refresh your eyes when they feel dry. -Take regular breaks from computer work, and try to get enough sleep at night.
