                                       Technology is helpful, but we should not use it for prolonged periods as it has its
                                       possible health concerns too.

                         screen is at your eye level and sit with your back straight. Keep on taking
                         small break to keep blood flowing and rest your eyes by covering it with your
                         palm. Blink often. Follow 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, look up from your
                         computer screen, locate an object that is 20 feet away and stare it for 20
                         seconds. Splash your eyes with water every hour and do some eye exercises
                         and stretches.

                         Aryan: Can you tell me some exercises?

                         Gowri: Yes, There are some stretches you can do But remember that stretch only till it is
                         comfortable and without pain. Hold it for 10 seconds and do not bounce back. Keep breathing.
