You've probably heard about this diagnosis. It's now commonly referred to as "computer vision syndrome" by doctors. Long-term use of not only computers, but also e-books, mobile phones, and tablets, is, of course, one of the causes.
Fortunately, the theory that this can lead to irreversible changes in the eyes or vision has been refuted.
Doctors give a simple explanation for the occurrence of dry eye syndrome:
Evolutionarily, the human eye was not made to work long hours in front of a computer screen. When visual demands are higher than visual capabilities, the risk of getting dry eye syndrome goes up.
Naturally, the longer the use of digital screens, the higher the degree of anxiety.
Of course, you don’t have to give up on online slots for real money in South Africa, but you should prioritize your health. So, if you're experiencing any of these signs, here's what you should do.
Dry eye syndrome is manifested by the following signs:
- dry eyes
- Redness
- A feeling of "sand in the eye"
- I have a feeling of something strange in my eye.
- burning
- paradoxical lacrimation
- photophobia
- distortion of vision.
These clinical signs are temporary and may go away after you stop using computers or digital screens, but in some cases, they may be permanent:
The clinical signs are:
- headaches
- I have neck, back, and shoulder pain.
- Blurred vision
- dichotomy
- Redness
- dryness in the eyes.
The risk factors and causes are:
- 2 or more hours of continuous work on the computer.
- The presence of glare and reflections from computers makes it difficult for the eyes to work.
- incorrect distance and angle from the computer.
- incorrect posture
- insufficiently fixed visual issues.
- When visual demands exceed a person's visual capabilities,
- poor lighting.
Ophthalmologists say that the main reason for dry eyes in people with computer vision syndrome is that they blink less.

When a migraine's distinctive throbbing subsides, the relief is immense. But for many people who suffer from these potentially devastating headaches on a daily basis, their suffering does not end when the pain subsides. Instead, a unique phase of migraine known as the postdrome causes individuals to feel achy, exhausted, bewildered, and confused—symptoms that are strikingly similar to those of a whole different condition.
The "migraine hangover," dubbed the "migraine hangover," follows up to 80 per cent of migraine attacks, according to a study published in Neurology. Scientists are increasingly focusing on this hitherto under-recognized aspect of migraine.
Because patients are unaware that postdrome symptoms are a normal aspect of migraines, they come up with creative ways to describe them. They feel washed out, their skull feels hollow, or they feel like they have a hangover when they weren't drinking. Prior to recent years, science had not paid much attention to this aspect of the syndrome, but it is a natural step to focus on the whole problem.

Sometimes, pain serves a purpose, such as when it alerts us to an ankle sprain. However, for many people, pain can persist for weeks or even months, causing unnecessary suffering and impairing quality of life.
If your pain has overstayed its welcome, you have more treatment options than ever before. Here are eight techniques to control and reduce your pain that does not involve an invasive procedure or medication.
1. Heat and cold. These two tried-and-true techniques continue to be the cornerstone of pain relief for certain types of injuries. If a homemade hot or cold pack is ineffective, consult a physical therapist or chiropractor for treatments that penetrate deeper into the muscle and tissue.
2. Exercise. In chronic conditions such as arthritis and fibromyalgia, physical activity is essential for breaking the "vicious cycle" of pain and decreased mobility. Try light aerobic exercises like walking, swimming, and cycling.
