You have probably heard or read about how spending too much time on computer, smartphone or tablet (digital screens) may lead to permanent eye damage. Fortunately, this is nothing but a lie: just like that old saying about \u201cruining your eyes\u201d when watching a lot of television or sitting too close to a TV equipment. Nevertheless, there are some often-induced changes in normal ocular physiology causing short and mid term effects, especially when it comes to daily comfort.<\/p>\n

Screen-related eyestrain affects all age groups and is also increasing among children. Symptoms include blurry vision and \u201csore\u201d and tired eyes alongside dryness feeling, easy lacrimation or burning.
