Re: Computer Vision Syndrome
#2That's a pretty plausible explanation for why my eyesight has gone down the drain in the past couple years. And I'm young, I can't be losing my vision just yet.
I suppose I should ask my optometrist about this.

#5Anyone know of a break-taking app that watches your activity and can wait until you've lost focus on your work before reminding you to take a break?
Something like the alarms that wake you up at the right point in your sleep cycle.
It would probably need to have a cut-off eventually, but I'd hate to be interrupted in the middle of tracing some complex logic if there's a perfect stopping point 10 minutes later.

#6Here's the 2014 article referenced (it's a good summary): http://www.academicjournals.org/journal/MPR/article-full-tex...
After a particularly intense few weeks of work of computer-based work, I started getting double vision every time I tried to read or type at a computer screen. Initially it was rather disturbing.
Recovery was 3 days away from screen time and time outdoors (focusing eyes on far away things). I've definitely reformed my habits to spend time looking out the window more.
Also, flux is a requirement for any screen I use.

Yeah I guess those doctors are all just lying to us. Damn you science!

#8"He recommended I use a hot compress at least once a week for 10 minutes and to look away from the screen in a method called the 20-20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes take
20 seconds to look at an object at least 20 feet away and blink 20 times."
Is there any evidence that this treatment actually works?

You could put the reminder in to a screensaver that activates after a certain amount of inactivity.

I had 20/20 vision until I was 33, then over the next couple of years I noticed my site getting worse until I tried on a friends pair of glasses and everything went crisp.
I asked the optometrist what would cause my eyes to go bad and she just said "How many hours a day do you look at a computer screen?"
