Increasing usage of computer and mobile screens

People who frequently use computer or screens are also at high risk of developing dry eyes, as using screens for a long period can lead to reduced blinking and tear production. Digital device usage has increased significantly in recent years among all age groups, due to extensive use for social and professional purposes. Blue light emitted by digital screens is associated with symptoms of dry eye syndrome. Exposure to blue light (range of 400–500 nm) can be harmful to the retina. Longer duration and less intense light exposure can also induce photochemical damage in the eyes. Furthermore, lack of sleep and excessive stress can play a crucial role in the onset of dry eye syndrome due to oily tear gland dysfunction. According to the data provided by SleepFoundation.org, a foundation providing information about sleep and promoting overall wellness, in May 2023, more than one-third of U.S. adults sleep less than seven hours per night, on average. According to the same source, 50 million to 70 million people in the U.S. have ongoing sleep disorders.
