We all spend way too much time staring at computer screens and our phones. Most people will eventually experience some discomfort or eye strain while staring at screens for a long time but do these screens really hurt the eyes?
Here I break down some of the concerns about digital screens and what the published science really says about computer screens and their effect on the eyes.
The main issues revolve around how screens (and near work) can influence eyes to get worse (stronger glasses prescriptions), if blue light from screens can hurt our eyes, and how digital screens cause computer vision syndrome, including dry eyes and eye fatigue.
