Ophthalmologist Khomyakov spoke about a new disease due to work with computers

With the constant use of gadgets, various eye diseases can develop, one of which is display syndrome. About him in conversation with aif.ru said the ophthalmologist, doctor of medical sciences Sergey Khomyakov.

The expert noted that the main symptoms of this disease are increased fatigue, decreased performance, visual fatigue, difficulty focusing and quickly shifting focus from close to far, and many others. And all of them can be combined with each other.

Khomyakov emphasized that people who sit at a monitor at close range and in a static position for a long time can get display syndrome.

To cure such a disease, you can very simply remove the root cause – the monitor screen. However, if this is not possible, then you need to follow the regime: 20 minutes of work at the computer, and after about 20 seconds, look at a distance of at least six meters into the distance.

In order to avoid such an ailment, the doctor advises choosing a screen with a resolution of 4k and a frequency of 100 Hz or more.
