Too Much Screen Time
People who use computers for extended periods tend to suffer more from dry eyes compared to those who do not. This is because people are less likely to blink enough when staring at a computer screen for long hours. As a result, tears lubricating the eyes may dry up faster and take a while before being replaced.
Dry eyes from staring at a computer screen [10] can be uncomfortable, but it is not always chronic. If there are no other underlying causes, paying more attention to your eyes when you use a computer can help.
Make a conscious effort to blink more frequently when staring at a computer screen. Look away from the screen once in a while. You may also use artificial tears to lubricate your eyes when working for long periods.
