Frequently asked questions
Eye strain is most often caused by prolonged use of digital screens, reading, driving long distances, or performing detailed close-up work. Poor lighting, uncorrected vision problems, and infrequent blinking can make symptoms worse.
Common symptoms include tired or sore eyes, dryness or irritation, blurred or double vision, headaches, difficulty concentrating, and increased sensitivity to light. Symptoms usually improve with rest.
You should seek medical evaluation if your symptoms are severe, persist even after rest, are accompanied by sudden vision changes, eye pain, or discharge, or if you have not had a recent vision or eye health check.
Yes. When eye strain is complicated by chronic dry eye, inflammation, or allergic reactions, prescription eye drops such as cyclosporine (Restasis), fluorometholone (FML), or ketotifen (Zaditor) may be recommended by a physician to target the underlying cause.
Following the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds), adjusting screen brightness and contrast, using proper lighting, taking regular breaks, and blinking more consciously can all significantly reduce symptoms.
Yes. Refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, or presbyopia can force your eyes to work harder, leading to strain. An up-to-date eyeglass or contact lens prescription is an important part of managing eye strain.
