The Science of Screen-Induced Dry Eyes Dry eye syndrome affects over 16 million Americans, with prolonged screen use being a leading contributor. When focusing on digital devices, blink rates drop by 66% – from 15-20 blinks/minute to just 5-7 blinks/minute. This reduced blinking disrupts the tear film's three-layer [...] Read more

The Growing Problem of Digital Eye Strain Remote work has transformed how we communicate, with platforms like Zoom becoming indispensable. However, 72% of remote workers report increased eye fatigue after prolonged video calls (American Optometric Association, 2023). This phenomenon, called Computer Vision Syndrome [...] Read more

The Hidden Flaws of Auto-Brightness Technology Modern smartphones use sophisticated ambient light sensors and machine learning algorithms to automatically adjust screen brightness. While this feature works well in daylight conditions, multiple studies reveal fundamental flaws in nighttime implementation: Luminance [...] Read more

Introduction E-readers have revolutionized how we consume books, but many users report eye fatigue after prolonged use. This phenomenon isn’t just anecdotal—it’s rooted in optical science. From screen flicker to blue light emissions, modern display technologies interact with our eyes in ways that physical books [...] Read more
