| As we depend more on technology, caring for your eyes is vital to keep our vision at optimum levels. Prolonged screen time can cause eye dryness, blurry vision, and headaches. Staring at digital devices dries out the eyes because it decreases your blink rate by a third to a half, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Invest in a computer stand to avoid neck strain. |
