Did you know that between 60% and 70% of Americans experience digital eye strain? The American Optometric Association states that increased screen time increases the risk of eye discomfort. One of the best ways to support your eye health is to take breaks from screens. Try the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Remember, you have the power to safeguard your eye health.
