With so many of us using screens more and more it’s perhaps not surprising that we’re suffering from sore, tired eyes. Follow the 20:20:20 rule; every 20 minutes look up from your screen for 20 seconds, 20 feet away, if possible. During that time give several full blinks – and remember to keep blinking when you return to your screen.

It’s also very important for both your eye and general health to try and take some exercise out of doors in the fresh air and (hopefully) sunshine each day so try and get out for a walk, cycle or run.
