What Is Digital Eye Strain?

Digital eye strain is often caused by prolonged screen use, poor lighting, and improper viewing distances. When staring at screens, we usually blink less, leading to dry eye and discomfort.

Common symptoms include headaches, blurry vision, eye fatigue, and neck or shoulder aches from straining. If you experience any of these symptoms, it could be because of strained eyes.

We can help identify and address these triggers to help you effectively manage and prevent eye strain.

Relieving Digital Eye Strain at Raymore Eyecare

Digital eye strain can be effectively managed with several practical options, from specialty lenses to ergonomic adjustments.

We know that taking a screen break every 20 minutes or constantly using eye drops can be a hassle. That’s why we’re here to help you find relief that makes your day easier.

During your eye exam, we’ll discuss your concerns with eye strain to help you find the right approach to relieve your symptoms.

ZEISS Digital Anti-Fatigue Lenses

ZEISS digital anti-fatigue lenses are engineered to ease eye strain during extended screen use. Their innovative design enables a seamless transition between near and far distances, reducing discomfort and fatigue from prolonged sessions on computers, tablets, or smartphones while delivering clearer vision throughout the day.

ZEISS Office Lenses

ZEISS office lenses are the perfect solution for those who spend long hours working in an office or performing tasks at close distances.

They include intermediate and near-vision zones to offer optimal clarity for tasks like reading, writing, and computer work, reducing the need for constant lens adjustments.

Ideal for professionals, these lenses provide enhanced visual comfort and sharpness without compromising your posture, helping you work longer without strain.

Viewing Distance Ergonomics

Setting up your workspace with healthy viewing distance ergonomics can minimize eye strain. Position your screen about an arm’s length away and slightly below eye level to encourage a natural, relaxed posture, helping reduce strain and increase comfort during screen time.

Avulux Lenses: Protection from Light-Sensitive Migraines

If you experience light-sensitive migraines, you know how important it can be to protect your eyes. If you experience eye strain from digital devices, or if eye strain worsens your migraines, our team may suggest Avulux lenses.

Avulux lenses are specifically engineered to filter out specific harmful light waves, including blue light—commonly emitted by digital screens—that can lead to eye strain and trigger headaches.

By reducing this type of harmful light, Avulux helps make screen time more comfortable, letting you work or unwind with fewer distractions. These lenses can be made with your prescription to help protect your eyes and improve your day-to-day comfort.

Digital Eye Strain & Myopia

Spending lots of time on close-up tasks, especially screen time, can increase the risk of myopia, particularly for kids, teens, and young adults.

At Raymore Eyecare, we believe that small changes can make a big impact. Taking regular breaks, getting outside, and setting screens at healthy distances can help protect eyesight. These habits, combined with our anti-fatigue lenses, can help support clearer vision for the future. For more ways to protect your family’s eyes, book your next eye exam so we can answer any questions.
