Protect your vision while working from home

Due to the pandemic, millions of people all over the world are working from home, which means longer hours in front of computers. Add to that the frequent use of phones and other devices for entertainment and other purposes. While it is somehow necessary, this may be harmful to your eyes.

For starters, staring at a screen reduces a person’s blink rate, which is key to moistening the eyes and keeping it comfortable. Also, overexposure to blue light, which is the light emitted from digital screens, may pose some eye-related health risks. It has been shown that excessive blue light can increase eye strain, cause headaches and blurry vision, interrupt sleep cycles, affect hormones, and potentially do serious damage to long-term eye health. Fortunately, there are different types of lenses that can address different vision problems.

Essilor, the world leader in ophthalmic optics, offers a specially designed lens that filters harmful blue light hat comes not only from the sun, but also televisions, computer screens and cell phones. Essilor Crizal lenses can act as a shield and block harmful blue light. More than just helping you relax your vision, Crizal lenses can also provide protection against reflection, scratches, smudges, dust, water, UV and other enemies of clear vision.

Additionally, increased screen time can directly affect a person's visual acuity and range of sight. If you are already in your early 40s, you may also find yourself struggling to see a relatively distant object sharply after staring at your computer screen.
