What to do if your eyes are tired? 7 ways to relieve eye fatigue

Eye fatigue has become a common disease. People who play with mobile phones, computers, and televisions for a long time will experience pain in the eyes and around the eye sockets, blurred vision, dry eyes, etc. If this disease is not treated in time, it will cause more discomfort in the body and cause fatigue syndrome.

7 ways to relieve visual fatigue:

1. Pay attention to the light. Reading under dim light will not hurt your eyes, but if the light does not provide enough light-dark contrast, it will make your eyes tired easily. Use soft light that can provide light-dark contrast (light that is not glaring). Do not use electric lights that reflect light directly into your eyes.

2. Interrupt your work. If you use the computer for 6-8 hours continuously, you should take a break every 2-3 hours. Have a cup of coffee, go to the toilet, or just take your eyes away from the computer for 10-15 minutes.

3. Reduce the light from the screen. The letters and numbers on the computer screen are like small light bulbs, shining light directly into your eyes. Therefore, you need to lower the brightness of the screen and adjust the contrast (brightness and darkness) to make the letters clear.

4. Close your eyes and rest. The best way to relieve eye fatigue is to let your eyes rest. This is easier than you think. You can close your eyes while talking on the phone. If you don't need to read or write anything, then you can just close your eyes and rest while chatting. People who practice this method while talking on the phone say that their eyes are indeed much more comfortable and it helps to eliminate eye fatigue.

5. Make tea, but don't drink it, but apply it to your eyes. Soak a towel in the tea, lie flat, apply the warm towel to your eyes, and close your eyes for 10-15 minutes. This will eliminate your eye fatigue. Be careful not to pour the tea into your eyes, and let the tea cool down for a while before dipping the towel.

6. Reach out and rub your hands together until they are warm. Then, close your eyes and cover your eye sockets with your palms. Do not put pressure on your eyes, just cover them. Breathe deeply and slowly. Do this for 20 minutes every day.

7. Blinking massage: Blinking 300 times intentionally every day can help clean your eyes and give them a little massage.

Do the following exercises to eliminate eye fatigue:

1. Press the eyeballs: Close your eyes and use the tips of your index, middle and ring fingers to gently press the eyeballs. You can also rotate and rub them. Do not press for too long or rub too hard. Stop after about 20 seconds.

2. Forehead pressing method: Use three fingers on each hand to rub from the center of the forehead to the left and right temples, and then press the temples hard. You can use your fingertips to apply force. This will give you a comfortable feeling at the bottom of your eyes. Repeat 3 to 5 times.

3. Press between eyebrows: Place the belly of your thumb on the concave area below the root of the eyebrow and gently press or rotate it. Repeat 3 times. Look far away and rotate your eyeballs to the right, up, left, and down without shaking your head. In addition, blinking hard or closing your eyes can also eliminate eye fatigue.

These methods can eliminate eye fatigue, give the eyes a full rest, stimulate the aging eye muscles, and restore vitality. It would be better if the above exercise methods can be combined with eye hygiene and a balanced diet.
