Combating Digital Eye Strain
Are your eyes feeling tired from all that screen time? At Kopan Eyecare, we understand the strain smartphones, laptops, and tablets can put on your eyes. The formal name for this is digital eye strain or computer vision syndrome (CVS).
Spending hours staring at screens can lead to discomfort and vision issues. That’s why we offer specialized glasses with blue light filters, which can help reduce eye strain and improve sleep quality.
Our digital eye strain services include personalized recommendations and various lens options to help you enjoy comfortable, healthy vision.
Don’t let digital eye strain keep you down—contact us to schedule your appointment today.

Our Approach to Digital Eye Strain
Contributing factors to digital eye strain can include uncorrected refractive errors such as astigmatism, farsightedness, or nearsightedness. It all starts with a comprehensive eye exam so our team can get more familiar with your specific needs and digital device usage.
We offer different lens options, including blue light filters to assist with eye strain and sleep quality after long hours in front of digital screens.
Recognizing Digital Eye Strain Symptoms
We understand that excessive screen time can strain your eyes and lead to dryness for several reasons. Whether at home or work, it’s easy to lose track of time when looking at a screen.
Several factors may contribute to digital eye strain, including:
- Extended screen time
- Poor lighting in your workspace
- Incorrect distance or angle while viewing your screen
- Blue light exposure causes sleep issues
- Infrequent blinking
- Uncorrected vision problems, such as astigmatism and presbyopia
With our personalized approach, we can help by recommending glasses with special filters and giving tips to help improve how your family uses screens.
Tips for Managing Digital Eye Strain
To manage digital eye strain effectively without slowing down, Kopan Eyecare offers practical tips and solutions for your family:
- Consider our glasses with blue light filters to help reduce eye strain from screens.
- Follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break to look at something 20 feet away.
- Adjust your desk setup for comfort—ensure your screen is 16–30 inches away, slightly below eye level, and tilted 10–20 degrees.
These simple yet effective adjustments can help alleviate symptoms like dry eyes, headaches, and blurred vision, creating a more comfortable and productive screen time experience.
