Computer Lenses in Plano TX

Welcome to the Digital World

As we look around our desk, how many gadgets did you find that have a LCD screen attached to it? Blackberry, iphone, laptop computer, Palm PDA, PSP, PS2, Game Cube, GPS, flat screen TV...... It seems like every part of our life is tied to some kind of digital devices. Computer vision syndrome is no longer an uncommon problem, it is an epidemic. What are some of the symptoms of computer vision syndrome? Eye strain, fatigue, tearing and light sensitivity are some common symptoms. Of course, blur vision and headaches are also at the top of the list. In the past, simple tactics such as non-glare screens, simple eye drops are sufficient to resolve most of the problems. However, with the increase in our digital demands, these simple remedies are no longer sufficient to solve the problems created by our digital world.
