Screen time is now a huge part of our children’s daily lives, from online classes to games and cartoons.
But all that close-up focus can lead to digital eye strain, headaches, blurry vision, itchy eyes, and even worsening myopia if it isn’t managed properly.
In this video, Dr. Uzoma explains simple but effective ways to protect your child’s eyes:
✅ Follow the 20–20–20 rule: Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
✅ Encourage regular outdoor play: Natural light helps the eyes relax and reduces the risk of myopia progression.
✅ Consider blue-light-blocking or anti-fatigue lenses for older children who use screens for long periods.
Your child’s eyes are still developing, the habits you build now will protect their vision for years to come.
Bring them in for a proper eye exam so we can help keep their eyes healthy, comfortable, and strong.
