Tired Eyes
August 18, 2009
If you’ve been straining your eyes, your eyes will tell you soon enough. Among the symptoms are eye fatigue or “tired eyes”, a burning feeling or a sensation of heaviness, eye pain, headache, and sensitivity to light.
Maybe you’ve never worn glasses before and don”t feel you really need them. If you haven’t had an eye examination recently, how can you be sure? Eye problems don”t usually go away by themselves. They only get
worse. It’s possible that your need for glasses is minor. You may need them only when reading, working with figures, or any other close work.
If you’ve been wearing glasses for a long time, you might need a stronger prescription. As people get older, their near-focusing muscles tend to weaken, and their vision should be corrected accordingly. Whatever the cause of your eyestrain, you can benefit from an eye examination to find out what’s causing the problem.
