Eye care news - How to talk about digital eye strain to patients

Eye care news, Flame Health aims to keep you up to date on industry news and updates. How to talk about digital eye strain to patients. Mougy Eyewear optometrist, Zi Xuan, on digital eye strain and how he discusses the topic with patients.

As we move into an increasingly digital world, the importance of discussing digital eye strain during patient consultations grows. Here, optometrist at Mouqy Eyewear, Zi Xuan, shares his experiences on how best to approach this topic

As our modern visual habits change, the conversations we have with patients also need to evolve. With 50% of UK adults looking at screens for 11 hours or more a day, there’s little wonder that the effects of digital eye strain (DES) are more commonly showing up during eye consultations.

As eye care professionals, I feel it falls into our role to help patients understand DES and how they can manage it. After all, there is still a great deal of public confusion and misinformation on the topic.

Some patients have a vague idea of the negative effects of being ‘glued to a screen,’ whilst others may be entirely unfamiliar with DES or what they can do about it.
