Digital Eye Strain Treatment at Maine Optometry
We use computers, tablets, and other digital screens today more than at any other time period. This means our eyes are constantly exposed to the blue light that screens emit, which can cause uncomfortable symptoms, including digital eye strain. At Maine Optometry, we know how important it is to be able to comfortably use screens for both work and leisure, and we’re proud to help you guard against and manage your digital eye strain.
What is Digital Eye Strain?
Digital eye strain is the term for a group of vision-related problems that are the result of prolonged use of computers, smartphones, tablets, and anything else with a digital screen. These devices emit blue light, and overexposure to blue light can cause the following symptoms:
- Eyestrain
- Headaches
- Blurred vision
- Dry eye
- Neck and shoulder pain
Benefits of Blue Light Glasses
One way we help prevent digital eye strain is through the use of digital eye strain glasses that filter out blue light. This type of lens prevents the uncomfortable eye strain caused by excessive blue light, keeps your eyes from drying out, and even helps you sleep at night!
