Ever had a headache, dry or red eyes, fatigue or neck pain at the end of the day? This app is for you then!
It's all the symptoms of computer vision syndrome (or CVS). About 90% of computer workers have it.
If you're focusing on a computer screen for too long, your eyes don't recover from the strain, and it causes a bunch of problems.
Breaks For Eyes helps you overcome all the symptoms with a 20-20-20 rule, which is a medically proven way to knockdown eye strain & computer vision syndrome!
The app reminds you to take a 20-second break every 20 minutes & look at something 20 ft (6 m) away.
You can disable break reminders for some time (30 min, 1h, 2h, 4h, a day) if you're in a meeting or watching a movie. Click the button in the menu bar to do so.
Take care of your eyes!
