Children nowadays seems to be getting less play time outdoors and instead spend more time indoors using digital devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops or LED television. These digital devices usage is becoming a norm in our children’s lives, such as attending online classes or watching their favourite videos. In conjunction with this, some parents might not be aware of the unhealthy effects on their children of spending too much time staring at the nearby screens, which can lead them to experiencing digital eye strain.
What is Digital Eye Strain?
Digital eye strain, also referred to as computer vision syndrome, is a group of eye and vision-related symptoms that occur from prolonged usage of tablets, smartphones, computers (laptops and desktops) and LED television. Digital eye strain might disrupt children’s sleep cycles and this may lead to difficulty in getting enough rest. The other symptoms include:
- Eye strain
- Headaches/migraines
- Blurry vision
- Dry eyes
