Hello 👩💼 I just published a quick clinical breakdown on Medium: "The Neurobiology of Screen Fatigue." Rather than just pointing to screen brightness, it explores the deeper physiological and evolutionary mismatches we treat every day: ➡️Attentional Blink Suppression: How intense focus drops blink rates by up to 70%, leading to raw corneal nerve exposure. ➡️Ciliary Muscle Spasms: The localized fatigue and micro-spasms caused by maintaining constant accommodation on a static 2D plane. ➡️The Hyper-Vigilance Loop: How HEV blue light stimulates ipRGCs, triggering a neurochemical tug-of-war between physical eye fatigue and central alertness. I’d love to hear how you approach patient education on computer vision syndrome (CVS) in your own practices! 🔗 Link to the full article is in the first comment below. #Optometry #VisionScience #EyeHealth #DigitalEyeStrain #Neurobiology
