Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, Daily use of digital screens increases the chance of developing dry eye disease (DED), a tear film instability disorder resulting in ocular surface damage. Individuals actively engaged on digital screens for an extended period experience decreased blink rates and an increase in incomplete blinks, which can cause ocular surface dryness, potentially contributing to developing DED. Therefore, eye care experts must educate patients about the association between DED and digital screens and the potential prevention strategies to manage digital screen-induced DED. Watch this video to learn more about the association between digital screen use and DED, its effect on blinking dynamics, and how to manage digital screen-induced dry eyes. Highlights: - Risk factors associated with DED
- Relationship between digital screen use and DED
- Effect of digital screen use on blinking dynamics
- Strategies to prevent and manage digital screen-induced dry eyes
