How Digital Devices Affect Your Child's Eyes



These days, there are more children and teenagers, including those with special needs, using digital devices to learn, play and be entertained than any generation before. From smartphones to e-readers, and computers to digital tablets, young people have greater access to a wide variety of digital devices.

It’s important to be mindful of the effects of using digital devices, along with ways to keep your child or teenager’s eyes safe while using them. 

The overuse of digital devices can cause digital eye strain, or computer vision syndrome (CVS), which is a term for any number of eye or vision-related problems that can result from overusing a computer or digital device.

For more information you can read the original article by Dr. Justin Bazan, VSP Optometrist on specialneeds.com.
