Eyes have smaller structure and its every part has different functions :
- Eyelids : Their main function is to protect your eyes from dirt, dust and harsh light.
- Eyelashes : A protective net for your eyes.
- Cornea : A refractive zone that guides light to reach the retina.
- Pupil : Controls the amount of light that enters your eyes.
- Lens : A refractive zone that also guides light into the retina.
- Retina and Optic Nerve : A bunch of intricate wiring that carries vision signals between your brain and eyes.
Beauty can be felt when we can see it, and we can see when we have a perfect vision. That’s the reason why I am discussing the point vision care under beauty. Our work pressure and lifestyles do not give us the opportunity to be kind to our eyes. As we know how much important the vision is let’s see what is computer eye syndrome. Here are some symptoms:-

Take care
Dry steam
Sit straight at your workstation and rub your palms against each other till you feel them warm. The warmth of your palms helps soothe and relax tired eyes. Then, lightly cup your eyes with your palms and relax for 60 seconds. Count the seconds in your mind. Repeat this exercise two to three times whenever your eyes feel tired, or as often as you want. While palming, you can either rest your elbows on your desk or keep away from the desk and cup your eyes. Both ways are fine.
Eye bath
During breaks, splash water on your face while closing your eyes. This has an overall relaxing effect and helps you feel refreshed.
Take a break
After you’re done with lunch, take a stroll outside your office for a few minutes. This will give your eyes a much-needed break and get them some fresh air.
Eye exercise
- Dr Harish S Belvi, a practicing ophthalmologist (eye specialist) based in Mumbai, says that regular work hours should be infused with short breaks. During such breaks, he suggests a small and easy exercise: “First, blink your eyes several times. While you keep your eyes closed, roll your eyeballs both clockwise and anticlockwise and take a deep breath. Gradually open your eyes while releasing your breath. This exercise lasts for a minute and you can repeat it three times before getting back to work.” It serves as a good workout for the eyes.
- While working for long hours, look at distant objects either in your office or outside. Looking at a distant object and then returning to your task helps your eyes focus better. Try taking such visual breaks for about five to 10 minutes every hour.
