2. Rub the forehead: Use the middle three fingers of both hands to start from the middle of the forehead, and then rub towards the temples on both sides of the forehead. When you reach the temples, press hard for a while, using the fingertips to exert force when rubbing. Repeat 3 to 5 times.

Repeat several times and then blink and close your eyes vigorously.

Choose the lighting carefully

If you often watch TV or read in insufficient or poor light, it will easily cause dry eyes. When reading at close range, you should choose soft light to avoid glare directly into your eyes. So don't turn off the lights when watching TV or using the computer.

Pay attention to your posture when using the computer

Pay attention to your posture when using a computer. The center of the computer monitor should be at the same level as your eyes, and the distance between your eyes and the screen should be 40-50 cm. It is best to blink frequently or close your eyes and rest for a while, which is very helpful in preventing excessive eye fatigue.

Keep the light in the room appropriate

The indoor lighting should be appropriate, especially in the computer room. It should not be too bright or too dark. Care should be taken to avoid direct light on the screen to produce interfering light. At the same time, pay attention to regularly cleaning dust and microorganisms, maintaining indoor air circulation, and replacing fresh air.

Pay attention to the combination of work and rest

It is important to combine work and rest, especially for computer operators. It is best to take a break for about 10 minutes after working continuously for an hour, or go outside the operating room to stretch your muscles, take a walk, do some radio gymnastics, etc., to give your eyes some time and space to rest.

Pay attention to vitamin A supplement

Vitamin A is very helpful in resisting eye fatigue. You might as well combine it appropriately in your diet and eat more foods containing vitamin A, such as carrots, milk, egg yolks, animal liver, etc. At the same time, it also requires moderation. Anything in excess is always detrimental to your health.

To sum up, we know that in fact, there are many ways to deal with eyes fatigue in our real life, and the most common ones are: massage, paying attention to the choice of lighting, paying attention to sitting posture, maintaining appropriate indoor lighting, paying attention to the combination of work and rest, and paying attention to vitamin A supplementation, etc. These methods are very good for the treatment of eyes fatigue, so people with eyes fatigue may wish to try them later.
