Did you know staring at digital screens for long periods can contribute to dry eye syndrome?
When we focus on phones, computers, or tablets, we blink less often. That means fewer tears are spread across the surface of the eye — leaving them dry, irritated, and uncomfortable. Other common symptoms can be burning or stinging, redness or intermittent blurred vision.
With screen time being a big part of daily life, dry eye symptoms are becoming more common. Using artificial tears regularly can help with these symptoms. We recommend using tears 2-4 times a day.
If you are using tears at least 2-4 times a day and still feeling uncomfortable, schedule an appointment and we can discuss other treatment options with you.
