Staring at a screen for a long period of time can cause serious eye issues. Screens release blue light that is harmful to the eyes. This blue light can cause long term damage to the eyes if not controlled immediately. Sadly, this is one of the negative effects of technology.
In today’s world, it is almost impossible not to use gadget but it doesn’t mean that you can’t protect your eyes anymore. What you can do is take regular breaks. Every 20 minutes, rest your eyes. You can shift your sight to somewhere at least 20 feet away for about 20 seconds. This is the so-called 20-20-20 eye rule.
