Problem with my eye?
I am multimedia student, for the past two to three weeks my eyes have this itching sensation. When I get this itching sensation I rub my eyes (gently), I know I shouldn’t do that, but I can’t control myself. After that I get this burning sensation and my eyes turn slightly red. I sit in front of computer all day but I use only LCD monitor. The only reason I can think is, air conditioner which is used for 4 to 6 hours a day in the institution I study multimedia after that I travel back home by bus, on the way lot of dust enters my eyes and cause more irritation. I don’t think that my eye problem could be due to long hours of using computer because I am used to long hours of computer usage when I used CRT monitor (for over 5 years) but it had a monitor filter for my CRT monitor. I can clearly feel that my eyes are strained and dry. What could be the reason and what should I do about it. How can I reduce the strain and dryness in my eyes?
this condition is called VDTS i.e visual display terminal syndrome.as far as i got from ur discription.this is due to over use of computer even if u use LCd.the reason is that ur eyes remained oprn for a long time so blinking rate is decreased.so the tears got more time to get evaporated n hence eyes become dried.bc tears are the most imp.factor for vitality of the eye with respect to moisture.
i dont know whats the name there in ur country for such madication but just try to find some “tears plus”or “tears naturale”type thing.these ll help u to replace ur tear.n ll resolve ur problem hopefully.
*source*i m related to eye field.
i wanna add one thing,u can use some glasses on the way back home in order to avoid allergants.
