Do you sometimes feel that your eyes are dry, burning, tired, or itchy? Eye fatigue may be to blame, especially if you are spending a lot of time online, as many are these days. In fact, computer-related vision and eye problems may be the cause of as many as 10 million eye doctor visits annually. Eye fatigue can also be caused by reading, writing, driving, or spending time in very bright or dim lighting. Lack of sleep may also play a role.
Signs of eye fatigue include dry eyes, watering, blurry vision, light sensitivity, irritated eyes, trouble focusing, and double vision. You may also feel sore in your neck and back, and have trouble concentrating. Eye strain and fatigue can also cause headaches, and can make you feel tired even after you’ve gotten a good night’s sleep.
If you notice any of these red flags, give your optometry clinic Koreatown, CA a call to make an appointment.
