Eye Strain

 Asthenopia (aesthenopia) or eye strain is an ophthalmological condition that manifests itself through nonspecific symptoms such as fatigue, pain in or around the eyes, blurred vision, headache and occasional double vision.Eye strain occurs when you over-use your eye muscles. Any muscle held in one position too long will cause the muscle to strain. When you concentrate on reading, working at a computer or even watching television for any length of time, your inner eye muscles tighten causing your eyes to hurt and become irritated, dry and uncomfortable.
Eye strain conditions can include the following symptons:
  • Soreness of the eyes
  • Headaches
  • Blurry vision
  • Dry itching or burning eyes.
If you are currently experiencing eye strain then you need to take time for the muscles around the eye to recover. You need to prevent further damage by gently working the muscles which have become strained and experienced minor damage.
The first thing would be to take a break and try to relax your eyes by allowing them to focus on objects around the room or even outside. Let your eye travel from object to object your eyes will automatically adjust themselves to the subject you are looking at.
