Best Relief for Eye Strain and Tired Eyes

• Tightening/overworking of the minute ciliary muscles inside the eye
• Inflammation caused by tear film moisture evaporation and dry eye

Examples of eye strain triggers:

• Lack of sleep
• Reading
• Computer use
• Tedious activities involving the eyes
• Driving
• Incorrect eyeglass prescription or contact lenses intolerance.
• Irritants such as air pollution, smoke, dust and low humidity/dry air.

Best eye strain relief:

• Look around the room or out the window every hour or so (for computer users for best relief of ciliary muscle fatigue).
• Don't forget to blink (staring at a computer can drop your reflexive blink rate from 20 times a minute to five times a minute. This exposes the eye to increased tear film evaporation causing dry eye and inflammation).
• Room lighting is best when dimmer than the TV screen, with no glare.
• Wear sunglasses for best eye relief while driving in bright light, when sun is in your eyes. or when it's hazy out.
• Apply Nature's Tears® EyeMist® as often as desired to soothe and humidify timed eyes and increase tear film water content.
• Get some sleep - or at least rest your eyes.
• Have your eyes checked regularly. Once a year is best.
• Drink at least eight glasses of water per day.
