Computer Vision Syndrome Treatment

Also referred to as digital eye strain, computer vision syndrome is a result of extensive computer use, including smart phones, tablets and e-readers. Symptoms can include headaches, dry eye, neck/shoulder pain, blurry vision and eyestrain.

According to the American Optometric Association, these symptoms may be caused by:

  • Poor lighting
  • Glare on a digital screen
  • Improper viewing distance
  • Poor seating posture
  • Uncorrected vision problems

Your optometrist can test you for computer vision syndrome, and will provide treatment options, which may include specialized lens designs.
