Digital eye strain is a condition caused by prolonged use of digital screens such as smartphones, tablets and personal computers. During times of screen viewing, it’s natural for us to blink less often, which can cause eye dryness and irritation, especially for contact lens wearers.11

What are ways of helping with symptoms of digital device use?

If possible, it always helps to take breaks from your screen viewing, especially when you feel the symptoms coming on. While not completely scientific, some eye care professionals recommend what’s known as the 20-20-20 Rule – every 20 minutes refocus your eyes on an object 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds.  

Other strategies for helping symptoms include proper posture and lighting, vision-friendly screen settings, and making a conscious effort to blink regularly during screen viewing. Artificial tears are another way to help moisturize your eyes.
