What can I do to prevent eye fatigue?

Answer by  ltdan12 (38)

Usually eye fatigue is caused by poor lighting or focusing on a nearby object, such as a computer screen for a long time. Therefore, prevention entails having adequate lighting in a room, without excessive glare. When working at a computer or reading a book, be sure to give yourself a one minute break every 30 minutes to rest your eyes.

To prevent eye fatigue you cannot read or stare at a computer for long periods of time. Put your work down, wash your face with cold water or get a refreshing drink. Once you are relaxed you can start fresh and begin the task you were working on. If necessary you made need glasses.

1. Put a glare screen on your computer. 2. Make sure the computer is at a proper, ergonomic height. 3. Do you wear glasses? If so, keep them clean. 4. Do you need glasses? If so, get them made to the proper prescription. If you need them and don't have them, you will get eye strain.
