Legend has it that green plants are a very magical thing

They can both protect the eyes and prevent nearsightedness

The editor once believed this deeply too

Kept green plants on the office desk

Also changed the computer desktop to green

But I was actually deceived

Modern medicine points out that cyan and green are relatively moderate in absorbing and reflecting light, and cause relatively little stimulation to the human nervous system, cerebral cortex and retinal tissue, so they can bring a feeling of coolness and calm. But this does not mean they can fight visual fatigue or prevent nearsightedness.

We have always firmly believed that looking at distant green plants prevents nearsightedness, but what actually works is not that the green plants themselves are good for the eyes, but that the action of "looking into the distance" can put the ciliary muscle in a relaxed state and give the eyes a rest. If the distance is shortened to something within 30 cm, such as a green plant on an office desk, then sorry, it is not good for the eyes.

What is the best way to protect the eyes?

1. Look into the distance

The structure of the eyes makes them more comfortable when looking into the distance, because the ciliary muscle does not need to exert effort and can relax. But you need to look at a distance of at least 6 m for it to be effective, and taking off your glasses works better than wearing them. At the same time, don't forget to blink every 6 seconds.

Especially office workers and internet users whose gaze is stuck on a computer screen for a long time, or students who bury their heads in books all day, need even more to leave their seats often and look into the distance, letting their eyes rest and giving themselves a breather.

2. Close your eyes

Close your eyes for 5 seconds right now. Do you feel a bit sore and dry? "Sore" is because you have been looking at things up close for too long and your eyes are tired; "dry" means your eyes are too dry.

Many people are so focused on the computer screen that they often forget to blink. By the time they notice, the tears have already evaporated quickly, causing sore, dry eyes.

Closing the eyes can also increase tear secretion, and because there is no scenery to focus on, the ciliary muscle also gets a chance to relax.

3. Hot compress

3 times a day for 10 minutes each time. Close your eyes and apply a hot wet towel to your eyelids. In addition to relaxing the eyes, it also promotes blood circulation in the eye area.

You can put the wet towel in the microwave to heat it, or soak it directly in hot water, but be careful not to scald yourself.

It is recommended that office workers use lunch breaks, after work and before bed. If you are really too busy, doing a hot compress once a day is better than nothing.
