❄️ Cold winds
🔥 Indoor heating
💨 Low humidity
💻 Longer hours on screens

All of these cause your tears to evaporate faster, leaving the eyes feeling dry, burning, watery or gritty.

𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽:
• Use a humidifier at home
• Avoid sitting directly in front of heaters
• Blink more consciously when on screens
• Stay hydrated
• Warm compresses can soothe and improve tear quality

Instead, you might notice:
• Rubbing their eyes
• Sitting close to screens
• Losing their place when reading
• Reduced confidence at school

Good vision plays a huge role in learning, reading and concentration. Regular eye exams can pick up issues early — even before your child notices something isn't quite right.

If your eyes feel gritty, tired or sore, you may be experiencing digital eye strain.

A simple, evidence-based tip that really helps is the 20-20-20 rule:
👉 Every 20 minutes
👉 Look at something 20 feet away
👉 For at least 20 seconds

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸?
Because it relaxes the focusing muscles inside your eyes, reduces fatigue and encourages you to blink properly again — something we all do far less when staring at screens.

✨ 𝗔 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗺
Astigmatism is one of the most common reasons people experience blur — but the word itself often sounds more worrying than it is.

It simply means the front surface of the eye (the cornea) or the lens inside is slightly more curved in one direction than the other. Instead of being perfectly round, it's shaped a little more like a rugby ball.

This change in shape bends light unevenly, which can make vision blurred or distorted at all distances. You may notice:
• Difficulty focusing on both near and far objects
• Headaches or eye strain
• Trouble with night driving due to glare

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀?
Astigmatism is easy to diagnose and easy to correct with glasses, contact lenses or specialist lens designs. Many people have it from childhood and never realise until they have an eye test.

If you spend long hours in front of a screen, you’re not alone. Digital devices can lead to eye strain, headaches, and tired eyes.
Remember the 20-20-20 rule - every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. It’s a simple way to give your eyes a break.
Regular eye tests can also help prevent strain and ensure your vision is supported with the right lenses or coatings. Book your eye test today and keep your eyes comfortable at work and home.
