Wendie Trubow and Bryce discuss realistic ways to protect your eyesight. They skip the strict rules like limiting screens to five hours a day, and instead offer practical tips for managing screen time without pretending most people can actually follow those limits.
Okay, so what's a girl to do about it, Bryce?
Well, so first of all, everything in moderation.
I don't know how in this world we're gonna realistically say, don't spend more than five hours a day on the screen like we have. We have to basically evolve the tips and tricks to keep up with the new normal.
Absolutely. There's stuff we can do. So you said eight hours a day on the screen with patients. Eight hours without looking up is very different than 20 minutes. Look up and come back and walk around. And so taking vision breaks, simple stuff. Every 20 minutes, take a break for at least 20 seconds and look at something 20ft away. Disengage your visual system, look out a window if you can, and then come back. But to really answer your question, brain training, vision performance training can get us to a place where we can spend hours on screens without symptoms, without problems emerging. But for most brains, you need to put in the work to get there.
