Protect Your Vision Before You Need It:

Prevention Starts Now

Between Zoom meetings, mobile scrolling, gaming, and Netflix—your eyes are doing overtime. If they could talk, they’d probably be asking for a vacation. This World Optometry Day, we’re raising the flag for one of the most overlooked health issues today: digital eye strain.

Yes, Screens Are Affecting Your Eyes

If you’re feeling any of the following, it’s time to take action:

  • Burning or tired eyes
  • Blurry vision after screen time
  • Frequent headaches
  • Trouble focusing

These are signs of Computer Vision Syndrome, and the best fix is not just taking breaks—it’s also getting your eyes checked regularly.

Insurance for Eyes in a Digital World

Many people don’t realize that eye exams can help detect more than just vision changes—they can reveal early signs of diabetes, hypertension, and even neurological issues. So why skip them?

With international private medical insurance that includes vision benefits, you don’t have to choose between screen time and peace of mind. You’ll be covered for:

  • Routine eye exams
  • Specialist consultations
  • Optical prescriptions

Easy Habits to Reduce Eye Strain

  • Follow the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds
  • Use anti-glare filters or blue light blocking glasses
  • Adjust brightness and contrast on your screens
  • Schedule a yearly eye exam—before you “need” one

Vision is Power—Protect It Now

You rely on your eyes for everything. Don’t wait for them to start shouting for help. Give them the care they deserve—starting with proper insurance coverage and regular check-ups.
