In this digital era, it is common to see everyone with their eyes glued to television, smartphones, laptops, and tablets. Be it a toddler or an adult, everyone is hooked to the beauty of digitalization. The hiccup is all about spending time tethered to the screen as it can damage those innocent eyes. Although it may seem quite normal, too much exposure to the blue light emitted from these gadget causes adverse effect.
Eye problems caused by too much screen time
Why to keep children away from the mighty ‘screen’?
• For better eye health
• To encourage children for outdoor activities
• To adopt healthy sleep habits
• To promote social relationships
Schedule their daily screen time
Let your child practice good eye habits!
People of any age group should apply 20-20-20 rule when using a computer or other screen device. 20-20-20 rule is looking away from the screen for 20 seconds after every 20 minutes and focus on an object that is 20 feet away. A timer can help the child remember this healthy practice.
Visit a pediatric ophthalmologist
Children hardly notice any vision problems until and unless it has grown that big. Moreover, it is harder to tell if they are developing any problem at all. Vitamin A and eye exercises can help the child in improving the vision, but a regular eye exam should be a part of your child’s healthcare schedule. Visit a pediatric ophthalmologist and get a comprehensive eye check-up.
