So, if you're squinting at your screen and reaching for artificial tears, it's time to take action. And remember, we're just a dial away at 650-300-9340 .

Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break to look at something 20 feet away. That's right, it's as straightforward as it sounds. It's called the 20-20-20 rule, and it can work wonders for your eyes. Screens can make us blink less and strain our eyes. A simple gaze out the window or across the room can refresh your vision and reduce the risk of dry eyes. And while you're practicing this rule, why not think about long-term relief with the iTEAR100? It's a step towards sustained eye health.

Staring at a screen for too long can cause your eyes to lock into a close-up focus, leading to strain and dryness. This little exercise helps reset your eyes" focus, lubricating them naturally and giving them a much-needed break.

Additionally, the occasional shift in focus encourages more frequent blinking, which naturally helps spread tears evenly across the surface of your eyes, keeping them from getting dry and uncomfortable.

Why not maximize your break with some quick eye exercises? A few rounds of blinking rapidly or gently massaging your eyelids can stimulate tear production and improve eye comfort. Incorporating these easy steps can significantly enhance the Rule's effectiveness.

Think of it as a mini-workout for your eyes keeping them strong and resilient against the demands of technology. By doing so, you're proactively caring for your sight. And don't forget, taking care of your eyes today can help prevent problems tomorrow.

Consistency is key with the 20-20-20 rule, so set a timer or use an app reminder. Before you know it, these breaks will become second nature, like reaching for your morning coffee. And that's when you'll start to notice a real difference in how your eyes feel.

Pairing this habit with the iTEAR100 is like having the perfect tech wellness routine. It's a way to ensure your eyes are getting the care they deserve while you manage all the screen time that today's world demands.

You heard that right, eye gymnastics! It's a series of exercises designed to get your eyes moving and grooving. Just as your body needs exercise to stay fit, your eyes need activity to stay healthy and moist. So, let's play around with focus-shift from near to far objects, trace figure eights with your eyes, or pretend you're a secret agent scanning for clues. These moves aren't just fun; they're a powerful way to fight back against dry eyes. And hey, why not post about your eye workouts on social? Get your friends on board too!

Start with something simple: focus on an object close to you, then switch to one far away. Repeat this several times, and you'll feel your eye muscles working. This change-up in focus can help maintain the flexibility of your eye lenses and prevent fatigue.

Think of it as yoga for your eyes stretching and strengthening for maximum moisture production.

Drawing an imaginary figure eight gets your eyes to move diagonally, horizontally, and vertically, covering all angles. Likewise, scanning the room as if you're looking for something lost encourages fluid eye movement, especially if you're usually locked onto a stationary screen.

These exercises don't just keep your eyes lubricated; they give all the tiny muscles in there a good workout, helping maintain overall eye health.

Blinking is an eye exercise superstar that's often overlooked. A few focused blinking sessions can stimulate your tear film and keep the front surface of your eye moist. Blink rapidly for a few seconds, then close your eyes and relax. It's like hitting the refresh button on your vision.

It may sound a bit too simple, but trust us, in the world of eye care, often the simplest solutions are the most effective.

When was the last time you gave your eyes a warm hug? Palming might just be what you need. Rub your hands together to generate some heat, then gently cup your palms over your closed eyes. Feel the warmth seep in, the darkness calm you, and your eyes slowly but surely rejuvenating. This relaxation technique can reduce eye strain and increase tear production. Just a few minutes a day, and you might just forget what dry eyes felt like.

Palming can improve circulation around your eyes, encouraging natural tear production. The gentle pressure and warmth help relax your eye muscles, which can get surprisingly tense after hours of staring at a screen.

Imagine you're on a tropical island, the sun warming your face only it's just for your eyes, and it's right at your desk.

To enhance the effects of palming, add some deep breathing. Inhale slowly and deeply as you cover your eyes, hold for a moment, then exhale fully. This synergy of calm breathing and warmth is like a mini massage for your peepers, making them feel loved and lubricated.

And if you pair these mini sessions with the iTEAR100, you'll have the perfect moisture boost for your eyes.

Like any good habit, consistency is crucial. Make palming part of your daily routine maybe after you finish a project or during breaks. It's an easy way to give your eyes a little pampering in the midst of a hectic day.

Simple, soothing, and effective make palming your go-to eye comfort move.
