A cautionary tale indeed. There are many on the way, I fear. For now, I keep working online but have drastically limited my computer and cellphone use. Part of that has been to eliminate Facebook from my phone, turn off notification and – most important – I have mainly stopped using my computer when the sun goes down. (Blue blocker eye glasses have helped).

Cheers

Ryan

Hi Stephanie, thanks for taking the time to comment. I get the impression that you WILL be able to get your eyes healthier or at least stop them from deteriorating.

I want to add that I was also have night driving problems. But walking in the early morning sun with my glasses off and doing Feldenkrais eye sessions has seemed to clear it up. Feeling much more capable when driving at night.

Peace!

Ryan

Since computers became needed for work, study and entertainment, my eyes have slowly deteriorated.

And then, the blow came – night driving became an issue, saw an optometrist and was diagnosed with glaucoma (hot eyes, not enough space for the blood vessels to deliver nutrients nor the nerve endings to deliver messages to the optic nerve) as well as cataracts. OMG – who would have thought, and I’m only 73. Computer death I call it.

Walking in nature, swimming even with a mask on and gazing into the depths of the ocean, anything to give my eyes much needed respite from the screen.
Now I’m finding it difficult to be at the computer, though still it has me by its grip!

I have always been very myopic, now -9.00.
I was late comer to the screen but in the last 3 years I have been wanting to teach online and spending much more time on computer building skills and creating content but now I wonder about the cost to my eyes and sanity…Or is it being 60?
More anxious and depressed despite lots of self care things and two months ago, a sudden change in vision, diagnosed as wet macular degeneration. Not good. Would it have happen without screen? I do not know. And I consider myself a moderate user. Hardly use cell phone to text or read. Cautionary tale.
