 Eyestrain has a number of causes, the most common being reading and computer use. Long periods of any close-work activity can cause eyestrain. Reducing vision stress and relaxing vision can relieve the obvious symptoms plus have additional benefits:
Eyestrain due to computer use has become so prevalent that it is termed "Computer Vision Syndrome", or CVS, in the medical community. The National Institute of Occupational Health and Safety statistics show that of the millions of people who work with computers more than three hours per day, 88 percent suffer from eyestrain. The American Optometric Association estimates that this problem costs employers and employees $2 billion each year to diagnose and attempt to treat it. This is in addition to the costs associated with lowered productivity and the millions of lost work days each year. Whether you want to reduce your own eyestrain or reduce the eyestrain of your employees (and thus increase productivity), there's a workshop for your needs.
