I have no choice but to use screens for work. What should I do then?


Take breaks? Maybe not worry so much about "wellness" articles? More often than not the anxiety these articles create is more detrimental than whatever the topic is about. For example, the article introduces an absurd "20-20-20" rule which states:

"This rule suggests that individuals look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes of the day."

Now clearly this is a rule that is impossible to realistically meet or maintain but yet the seed of anxiety is planted in the reader that they are not following yet another "rule" for better health (in this case eye health).
