Computer glasses and refresh tears
Is computer glasses/blue blocks really required or just a marketing gimmick? I have a tedious job role in which i have to spend hours staring monitor and electronic boards.. sometimes i cannot do 20-20-20 because i can miss observations going in real time. shall i consider these glasses? also refresh tears like drops are good in long run?

Hi. You can use Blue filter glasses. It wards off harmful rays from the screen.
You can stick a post it with 20-20-20 and blink written on it, so every time u see it, u remember to take a break and blink.
You can use refresh tear for temporary relief. But it's preferable that you keep yourself hydrated and blink more often to prevent dryness in eyes.
