Visual Fatigue Lenses to
reduce eye strain can only be prescribed by an eye doctor! |
|
More than 90% of adults report using digital devices more
than two hours a day, putting them at risk for digital eye
strain. |
Visual Fatigue Syndrome (VFS) is caused by focusing on
objects, such as computers, that are 1 to 3 feet away for
extended periods of time.
The symptoms of VFS are not
only bothersome, they can also be painful, reduce the
enjoyment of your day and reduce the quality of your work.
Working on tasks up-close causes your eyes to
drift outward, forcing your eyes to constantly work to turn
the eyes back in. This process often leads to a number of
symptoms like headaches, blurred vision, eye strain,
double vision, burning and tearing.
Common
symptoms of VFS are:
• Dry eyes
• Eyestrain
• Headaches
• Sensitivity to light
• Neck pain
• Blurred vision
• Loss of productivity
• Decreased vision at night. |
 |
The symptoms above, are by no means all inclusive. These
are just a few of the symptoms many suffer after long hours
on the computer or by participating in "close-up" activities
like working or focusing on small devices, playing an
instrument sewing or reading.
Since most bifocal
lenses and progressive lenses are not truly design for
computer work, people tend to adjust their posture which may
result in back or neck pain.
When it comes to
Anti-Fatigue lenses, your doctors are well-trained and
well-informed. Remember, Anti-Fatigue Lenses can only be
prescribed by a doctor, so if you have any of the symptoms,
come in and see us for an eye examination. |

Do Visual
Fatigue Lenses reduce eye strain?
YES! 60%
of the population suffer from visual fatigue. |

When the eye focuses on a fixed target, the
resulting accommodation is not constant. It varies
around an average value, like with an auto-focus
camera. These variations are called accommodative
micro-fluctuations; they are imperceptible and
uncontrollable.
When the eyes get tired,
these micro-fluctuations practically disappear,
which shows that the accommodation system has
greater difficulty sustaining its effort. These
micro-fluctuations provide the best objective
evidence of visual fatigue.
Anti-Fatigue
lenses help to restore the micro-fluctuations and
retain the balance of the accommodative system, for
fatigue-free vision.
Visual fatigue comes
from many factors causing discomfort for your eyes.
In your every day life, you are dealing with various
devices both at work and in your personal life:
computer, Smartphone, tablet PC, TV, etc.
Your life is busy and stressful and most likely
surrounded by artificial lightening and a polluted
environment. At the end of your day, your eyes may
be hurting you They may seem heavy and your vision
may be blurred, so your eyes will make every effort
to adapt. |
