Digital Eye Strain OLD

"My eyes get tired after prolonged screen use"
"Eyes get tired towards end of day, after long day of work"

Sound familiar? You may have Digital Eye Strain!

​​​​​​​

Spending long hours on digital devices can lead to digital eye strain (computer vision syndrome) due to a reduced blink rate, accommodative stress, and blue light exposure. Symptoms like irritated eyes, blurred vision, headaches, and trouble focusing are common among adults aged 18-45, especially those who rely on computers, tablets, and smartphones daily. At Blinking Owl Eyecare, we have a variety of treatments geared towards Digital Eye Stain, from Contact lenses, to glasses, to Optilift. We are your concierge eye care for all things eyes!

Did You Know?

When focusing on screens, we blink 50% less--causing tears to evaporate faster which leads to dry, irritated, tired, dark circle sunken eyes.

What about headaches and strain?
Extended screen use force your internal eye muscles and brow muscles to work harder. This can trigger a headache or migraine.

At Blinking Owl Eyecare we specialize in digital eye strain:
Digital eye strain and dry eye relief from screen related signs. We provide innovative solutions for patients across Miami and Broward. Our state-of-the-art eye exams assess your eye health, blinking patterns, and focusing ability to create a customized treatment plan such as prescription EyeZen glasses, MyDay/Biofinity Energyse Contact Lenses and Muscle stimulators via OptiLift to help muscle fatigue contributing to strain.

But you also have a major role! Follow the simple 20/20/20 rule to alleviate digital eye strain!

Can Digital Eye Strain and Screen Use Affect My Child?:

Yes! Digital eye strain doesn't just affect adults. It also affects children! Recent studies have shown that prolonged screen time as low as even 1 hour daily can increase risks of nearsightedness or myopia. This contributes to the myopia pandemic in children.
