Taking care of eyes when on computer
April 17, 2009
A very significant contribution of electronics engineering has been towards the application of computers in the daily life of an ordinary person. Irrespective of age, sex, profession or any field of activity you just can’t think of doing things at the speed that this small machine offers.
For a while, leaving apart the professionals or a worker in any commercial organization, consider students. Be it a school going child or a postgraduate student, everybody is required to use a computer.
Internet is essentially becoming a source of research for almost any kind of study.
It’s being used as a source of entertainment too, though it’ll be difficult to say to what extent has it been successful in replacing a T.V for the purpose of entertainment.
Both these devices are already beginning to show the ill affects of continuous use.
Eyes are the first victims. Continuously operating of either of the two devices tires your eyes. Gradually it tires the rest of the body too, though one may not realize it.
The posture that one typically adopts while using a computer is not a relaxed one. The shoulders, arms, and neck are inclined to be somewhat tense in that position, and the back gets strained. To continue to remain in a good health for long, follow these practices.
Ensure to have a proper posture. It should be upright but not stiff. Sit straight, keeping elbows close to your sides, and your forearms roughly parallel to the floor.
Adjust the height of your chair to enable your feet to rest on the floor. Your eyes should be level to the top edge of the monitor. Maintain an ideal distance of about a foot and a half from the screen.
You must take small breaks as frequently as you can, but once in an hour is the least. This helps to relieve your eyes and body too.
The duration of a break of even two minutes is o.k. Get up from your seat. Walk around your table, if you have no other space to go.
Engage your eyes in simple exercises by covering them with the cups of your hand for 10-15 seconds and by focusing them on distant objects.
