The 20-20-20 Rule That Saves Your Eyes

Digital eye strain is real. If you stare at screens all day, you know the headaches, blurry vision, and dry eyes. But there’s a simple hack: the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. That tiny break relaxes your eye muscles and resets focus. Ophthalmologists swear by it. I added one extra step: every 20 minutes, I also blink 20 times. It sounds silly, but it prevents dryness caused by staring. My productivity shot up because I wasn’t fighting burning eyes all afternoon. Think of it as a workout for your eyes. Small, consistent breaks keep them younger, sharper, and pain-free. #HealthHacks #EyeCare #ScreenLife
