πŸ’» Eye strain is a prevalent issue among UK adults, with 77% reporting discomfort after a long day at work. This widespread problem, known as computer vision syndrome (CVS), is primarily caused by excessive time spent on digital devices. For contact lens wearers, the effects can be even more pronounced, often resulting in severe dry eyes and increased discomfort.

πŸ‘ Content lenses can exacerbate symptoms of CVS. The lenses can reduce the amount of oxygen reaching the eyes, which, combined with decreased blinking rates while staring at screens, can lead to significant dryness and irritation.

πŸ‘‡ By adopting some simple strategies, contact lens wearers can significantly alleviate symptoms of computer vision syndrome and maintain better eye health. Check out some tips below.
