Learn three habits to prevent eyes from getting worse by using TV and personal computers

Modern society is full of items that can enjoy various video content.Television is naturally placed in each family, and most people carry mobile phones.Also, without a personal computer or a tablet device, it can be said that our work is no longer possible.

However, while those items can be easily used, it can be said that our eyes have been overworked.Use a personal computer for work, play with your smartphone during rest and travel time, and watch TV after returning home.If such a life continues, children and adults may have a decrease in vision.

So how do you associate with items that can enjoy these video content?We asked Dr. Yuki Aimi, director of Amaki Clinic about "healthy way of interacting with video equipment".

Increasing the number of people who grow up and have myopia symptoms

About 20 years ago, when video devices such as personal computers and portable game consoles were not as popular as it is now, myopia associated with a decrease in vision is around 20 years old, and it was thought that symptoms did not progress since then.。

"But now, for example, some people are in their 20s and 30s, and some people who are hoped in the generations of presbyopia and cataracts.] And "time" is completely different from the past, so it is possible that myopia is progressing even in adults. "

The excessive tension of the body muscles leads to myopia

If you use PCs, smartphones, portable game consoles, etc. at a short distance, the "hair muscles" to match the focus in your eyes will always be nervous.This condition is called "adjustment tension" (pseudo -pseudo myopia), causing the child's myopia.

The situation that the time and calendar of the clock, which seemed to be clear when waking up and in the morning, etc., seemed blurred in the evening after the computer work was applied to the adjustment tension.

The hair muscles are relaxed when looking at distant things, but they are nervous when focusing on nearby things.Under the situation where you always face your computer, your body muscles solidify tightly, so after a few hours, distant things become invisible and fall into a temporary deterioration.As you repeat such things, you will always be aopia.

"It is an era in the 20s and 30s that the child's myopia is increasing due to the continued tension of pseudo -nearby state even in adults," said Dr. Aimi.

Three ways to protect yourself from a decrease in vision

It is difficult to separate video devices such as TVs and personal computers from everyday life in terms of their entertainment and business.Dr. Ajiki says that he wants him to be aware of three measures to prevent his eyesight from decreasing.

Countermeasures 1 I can't keep watching the video for a long time at a short distance

In particular, smartphones and portable game consoles tend to be close to the screen and eyes.However, "I do not keep watching the screen for a long time at a close distance" is a very important point to prevent my eyesight."The eyes should be" intermittent use "instead of" continuous use ". If you leave or sit down, you will be tired if you do the same work as much as you get tired. I am concentrated.It is important to release the screen and work once, and use different distances, positions, and quality to use the adjustment of the eyes. "

View images in a place where two measures are bright

It is good to watch TV and PCs in a room as bright as possible.In the case of a dark room, the dazzling of the screen is strong, and the brain falls into an excitement.In that case, the eyes may hurt or feel sick.Conversely, during a break, remove the lighting light and relax your brain.

Countermeasures 3 Do not use video equipment 1 hour before going to bed

Before going to bed, when you take a blue light from TV or smartphones, the secretion of melatonin, a sleeping hormone, will be reduced and you will not be able to sleep well.The correct sleep cycle is inhibited and the activity of the next morning will also be affected, so be sure to refrain from using items that give blue light one hour before going to bed.If you sleep deeply in three hours when you start sleeping, you will get melatonin and growth hormone efficiently.

Reducing eyes burden by enjoying work

The three measures introduced this time are all easy, but some people may not be able to practice unless they are clearly conscious.However, Dr. Aimi says that not not only watching a personal computer, such as a personal computer, not only reduces the risk of myopia, but also to improve work efficiency.

"Rather than continuing one work, intermittently doing multiple tasks by dividing time in advance, the efficiency of the work will increase, and the eye control tension will be relaxed. Stretching with a desk.Then, moving your body will make your eyes clean. Also, if you enjoy your work fun, you will not feel the burden, so try it consciously. "
