The recommended rest time for your eyes depends on your activity.
General Eye Rest:
- Every 20 minutes: Look away from your screen and focus on something at least 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This is known as the 20-20-20 rule.
- Every hour: Take a 5-minute break to rest your eyes completely.
Extended Screen Time:
- If you work on a computer for extended periods, consider using blue light filtering glasses or adjusting your screen settings to reduce eye strain.
- Take more frequent breaks, especially if you experience eye fatigue or headaches.
Other Factors:
- Eye Health: If you have any eye conditions, consult your doctor for personalized recommendations.
- Individual Needs: Some people may need more frequent breaks based on their individual needs and sensitivities.
Remember, regular eye breaks are crucial for maintaining healthy vision and preventing eye strain.
