Eyes?


Question Posted Monday October 18 2004, 9:49 pm

I'm not sure how to explain this. But my eyes hurt very badly. It feels like, you use the eye muscles to keep your eyes open, right? When I close my eyes, it feels like the muscles aren't relaxed, and it feels like my eyes are still open and it hurts. I can't even sleep at night because of this feeling. A few things, I spend A LOT of time on the computer. I have glasses that I am supposed to use for reading, but I can read perfectly and I don't use them. My eyes aren't red and they don't itch. Should I go to the eye doctor, or the doctor, or what? Anything I should try?

The answer is brilliantly simple.

Rest your eyes. Limit your use on the computer. You're only hurting yourself. According to research, people blink much less, if at all, when they are on their computers.

Take up a new hobby.

Same thing happens to me, but it comes in a different form. Whenever I am on the internet too long and i strain my eyes I get massive headaches. 1.) wear your glasses when you're reading! it's straining your eyes to try to read when you can't see that well 2.) try breaking up ur internet time. Don't sit infront of the computer hours on end. Get online talk then get off. couple hours get on read ur mail or w/e. When you're sleeping try first relaxing your head. then your eyes...then your arms...then your legs and all the way down. that's a good straegy that puts me to sleep. Good luck and try not to strain your eyes!

well maybe try to wear your glasses when you have to read something. and see if it helps your eyes any. after a few days of your eyes adjusting to them if they are still bothering you then try and get an appt. with your eye doctor and see if he can help ya.

I think that you should either talk to your mom about it and make an appt. with the eye doctoe just in case and I also think that you should spend less time on the computer until your eyes start to feel a little bit better

call your doctor's office and ask them which office to go to. Try to rest your eyes as much as possible and go to bed earlier for the time being. Stop drinking caffeine and soda for a week or something... Good luck.

I'm on the computer a lot, too and sometimes my eyes would hurt at night cuz they were tired. But yes, you should go to an eye doctor and they usally put all this medicine in your eyes. Cut back on your internet time too.
