In today’s hectic and fast paced lifestyle, stress is an inevitable partner for most of us, along with a lot of other pressures and tensions. All these factors adversely affect your body and also your eyes and eyesight too. Taking special care of eyes is very significant during these changing times, so that healthy and powerful eyes can guide you even during old age. For protecting your eyes in the best form, natural eye care is the best solution.

Avoiding computer eye strain

Have your eyes checked regularly. If you need a new or changed prescription, attend to it immediately.

Re-position the computer. The screen should be about an arm’s length away and positioned directly in front of the face, not off to the side. Position the monitor so its center is four to eight inches below the eyes, which allows the neck to relax while we read and type.

Follow guidelines for good posture. It will reduce strain on the back, neck, and shoulders.
