If your eyes feel itchy, gritty, or tired after long hours on your phone or laptop, you’re not alone. Dry eyes are becoming increasingly common in the digital age. When we stare at screens, we blink less often, which means our eyes don’t get the moisture they need. Add in air conditioning, lack of sleep, and poor hydration, and your eyes are left feeling strained and dry. Simple fixes like following the 20-20-20 rule (look 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes), using a humidifier, and staying well-hydrated can help. If symptoms persist, consult an eye specialist.
