I have been experiencing eye strain and tiredness from screen use for the last few months. Are there any eye drops I can use for relief, or do I need to consult a doctor?

It is very common to experience eye strain from prolonged screen use, often due to decreased blinking, which dries the eyes. You can get relief using over-the-counter lubricating eye drops (artificial tears), preferably preservative-free options containing carboxymethylcellulose. Additionally, practice the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds. While these drops help, you should consult an eye specialist if symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by headaches. A quick exam can check if you need computer glasses or have underlying dry eyes. Please do not worry; this is a very common and highly manageable issue.
