We live in a time where our eyes are constantly “on.” Whether it’s for work, scrolling, or streaming, screens have become a near-constant companion—and so has the discomfort that comes with them.
Dry eyes are no longer limited to older adults. Even teenagers and young professionals now experience dryness, fatigue, and irritation from digital eye strain. Studies show that prolonged screen time leads to reduced blinking and faster tear evaporation—key triggers for dryness and discomfort.
In this blog, we’ll explore how blue-light and anti-fatigue (also known as anti-ageing) lenses can help relieve this strain, how modern fitting technology ensures unmatched precision, and what lifestyle tweaks can help you restore lasting eye comfort.
When we focus on a screen, our blink rate can drop by more than 50%. That means our eyes stay open longer, causing the tear film to dry faster.
A 2020 review in the Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology found a direct link between screen use and dry-eye disease—especially among students and professionals spending 6+ hours daily on digital devices.
Common signs of screen-related dry eyes:
Digital eye strain has quietly become a lifestyle issue—and addressing it early can prevent long-term ocular fatigue.
Blue-light lenses are designed to filter high-energy visible (HEV) light from digital screens. This helps reduce glare and may slightly improve visual comfort.
However, evidence shows they don’t directly treat dryness. Their main benefit lies in improving contrast, reducing visual fatigue, and supporting better sleep when used late at night.
Think of them as comfort enhancers, not a medical fix. They work best when paired with the right lens design—like anti-fatigue (anti-ageing) lenses—that target the root cause of visual strain.
If you’ve read our earlier blog on Anti-Fatigue Lenses, you already know they’re designed to reduce the focusing effort required during near or mid-distance tasks.
These lenses include a subtle “power boost” in the lower part of the lens—helping your eyes relax when looking at screens, reading, or using devices. The result? Less strain, fewer headaches, and reduced dryness from fatigue-related under-blinking.
Why they’re also called
Anti-Ageing Lenses
Because the same mechanism that reduces digital strain also helps delay early signs of presbyopia—the age-related loss of near focus that typically begins in your 30s and 40s.
By supporting your eyes’ natural focusing ability, anti-fatigue (anti-ageing) lenses act as a preventive comfort lens. They keep your eyes youthful, relaxed, and efficient—especially important in today’s visually demanding digital lifestyle.
In short:
Blue-light lenses filter.
Anti-fatigue (anti-ageing) lenses actively support your eyes’ focusing muscles.
Together, they make an ideal pair for preventing both eye strain and premature visual ageing.

Your lenses can do a lot, but a few lifestyle changes will take your eye comfort even further.
💧 Follow the 20-20-20 Rule
Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. It helps restore blinking and reduces fatigue.
🐟 Add Omega-3s to Your Diet
Omega-3 fatty acids (found in salmon, flaxseeds, walnuts, and chia) can improve tear stability and reduce inflammation.
🌬 Manage Your Environment
Avoid direct air from ACs or fans. Use a humidifier if your workspace is dry.
💡 Adjust Lighting & Posture
Keep screens slightly below eye level and reduce glare with soft lighting.
😴 Prioritise Sleep & Hydration
Sleep deprivation and dehydration both worsen eye dryness. Stay hydrated and limit screen use before bedtime for healthier eyes.
Dry eyes are an increasingly common side effect of our modern, screen-heavy lifestyle. But relief doesn’t require compromise—it just needs the right blend of technology and care.
