Core Points for Eye Protection

I. Universal Golden Rules for Eye Care

1.Remember the 20-20-20 Rule: After 20 minutes of close-range eye use, look at an object 6 meters away for 20 seconds, and blink 10 to 15 times in the meantime.

2.Maintain a proper posture: Keep mobile phones 30-40 cm from the eyes; position computer screens 10-15° below eye level; hold books 33-35 cm from the eyes; sit upright without tilting your head.

3.Optimize the eye-use environment: Prioritize natural light; avoid harsh or dim lighting; keep screen brightness in harmony with the surrounding environment and eliminate glares.

4.Control usage time: For adults, screen time should not exceed 8 hours a day; children under 3 are prohibited from using electronic devices; children aged 3-6 should have no more than 1 hour of screen time daily.

II. Targeted Protection for Different Groups

Children and Adolescents

Spend at least 2 hours outdoors every day and get an eyesight check every 3-6 months; do more eye exercises such as “eye tracking games” and “eye rotation training”, and avoid addiction to electronic devices.

Adults

Take a 5-10 minute break every hour of computer use; relieve eye fatigue with hot compresses and eye exercises; wear contact lenses for no more than 8 hours a day.

Seniors

Wear properly prescribed presbyopic glasses and take a break every 30 minutes of close-range eye use; have a professional ophthalmic examination once a year; wear sunglasses outdoors to shield against harsh light.

III. Dietary and Exercise Support

Increase intake of lutein (corn, blueberries), vitamin A (carrots, egg yolks) and Omega-3 (deep-sea fish, walnuts); often do outdoor activities like distance viewing and kite flying.

IV. Correction of Common Misconceptions

Blue light blocking glasses cannot prevent myopia, but only relieve eye fatigue.
Eye drops do not cure dry eyes; use no more than 4 times a day.
Properly prescribed glasses will not worsen myopia—poor eye-use habits are the main cause.

Warm Reminder

Get regular eyesight checks for early detection and intervention; do not use electronic devices while walking, riding in a vehicle or lying in bed to protect your clear vision!
