Today, most office workers need to use a computer. Working in front of the computer for hours on a flight can bring your eyes to severe overexertion or even injury. Vision can deteriorate over time, which can also be accompanied by pain and inability of the eyes to adapt to alternating light. Thus, we have compiled for you a number of useful tips on how to take care of your eyes.

Steps

1. 1 Let your eyes rest. It is best to get out of your desk chair, walk up to the cocktail and look at a distant object for 10 seconds, or until your vision has a healthy focus and your eyes relax.
2. 2 Move your eyes: if you need to sit near the computer for hours and you do not have the opportunity to leave your place, then just do eye exercises by rotating them clockwise, then in the opposite direction, and then making movements up, down, left and right. Repeat this kind of complex 3 times to relax your eyes.
3. 3 Blink your eyes to bring out tears, which will moisturize your eyes. If you wear contact lenses, then you should all the more to keep your eyes moist.Many people concentrate very much on their work, forgetting to blink, which leads to dry eyes.
4. 4 Remember to breathe as oxygen helps speed up blood circulation. Excessive concentration on the computer screen can make your breathing slower or too shallow. In general, remind yourself to relax and breathe regularly.
5. 5 Place your computer on a low table, or use a laptop with your eyes facing downward at the monitor. Looking down means that most of the eye will be covered by the eyelids, and it also has two additional effects: the eyes will subconsciously blink more and produce more lubrication.
6. 6 Adjust the distance of the screen from your eyes. The distance between your eyes and the screen should be 50 to 70 centimeters and 10 to 20 centimeters below your eye level. The angle of view and distance from the computer can reduce refraction and reduce eye fatigue.
7. 7 Work in proper lighting. Your workspace should be moderately lit to make it easier for your eyes. Remember that the computer monitor is already emitting light, which is enough for you to see something in it. If you work in an office that is lit by traditional electro-optical lamps, then you will most likely need a different desk lamp when using your computer.
8. 8 Limit your lens wear. If you wear contact lenses and your eyes do not produce very many tears and dry out quickly, consider using glasses instead of contact lenses. People who use a computer on a regular basis should see an optometrist every 6 months for an eye exam.
9. 9 Eat foods that are healthy for your eyes. Fish contains phosphorus, which is beneficial for eyesight. The best fish species in terms of eye health are salmon, trout, sardines, herring, and arctic char. Healthy vegetables: carrots, limes, green vegetables. The seeds contain an antioxidant that can reduce eye degradation and help maintain or improve vision.
10. 10 Strive to get more vitamin A from fruits and vegetables. Eat mangoes, tomatoes and watermelons, carrots, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, as well as grains, fish, and eggs. Remember to drink plenty of water to keep your eyes moist.
