What should I do if my eyes hurt when looking at the phone for a long time

Eye pain from looking at the phone for a long time is the most common phenomenon, but many people don’t know much about how to alleviate it. In fact, the most important thing is to look at the phone as little as possible, and pay attention to adjusting the brightness of the phone screen to a softer level.

1. Set the phone screen to a soft brightness and lower contrast. This is especially true at night, when it is best to adjust it to the "Night" function.

2. If you stare at the phone screen for more than half an hour, make sure to shift your gaze to other places for about 5 minutes at a time; or close your eyes and do eye exercises to protect your eyesight.

3. Eat foods that are good for eye vision.

4. Keep your eyes more than 30cm away from the phone screen.

5. Participate in sports regularly and try not to use your phone with the lights off.

6. Parents should strictly limit the time children use mobile phones or other electronic products to prevent various eye diseases.

7. Close your eyes and relieve eye discomfort by trying to blink more often or doing eye exercises. If symptoms do not improve, try eye drops.

8. Turn off the phone screen and walk around, look into the distance, or rub your eyes, which can effectively relieve eye discomfort.

If severe eye pain occurs, seek medical attention immediately.

9. When it comes to eye discomfort caused by looking at mobile phones, prevention is better than cure. Eyes are the windows to our soul, so be kind to them. When using mobile phones, we should develop good habits, such as keeping a distance of more than 30 cm, looking into the distance every once in a while, or doing eye exercises. As long as we develop good habits, we can effectively reduce the problem of eye pain when looking at mobile phones.
