Hours of Screen Time Can Cause Eyestrain & Headaches
Even a Small Lens Prescription Can Make a BIG Difference
Many patients say, “I see fine without glasses”. What they don’t realize is a small prescription can relieve eyestrain over the hours they spend staring at a screen. If you spend over 4-hours on a screen per day, you should schedule an eye exam.

Computer and touchscreens emit more blue light wavelengths than normal light. This can cause eyestrain and affect your sleep cycles (circadian rhythms). Our “Retina Shield” protects your eyes and increases your visual comfort when staring at a screen.
