To alleviate eye fatigue, headaches, migraines, and neck pain caused by prolonged screen time, it is important to follow the 45 to 5 rule. After every 45 minutes of focused work, take at least five minutes to relax your eyes by getting outside and engaging in panoramic vision. This can be achieved by taking a walk and looking at the horizon. Avoid checking your phone during this break as it maintains the Virgin's eye movement, which is crucial for increasing focus and attention. Remember to also take breaks within the 90-minute focus sessions if you are working on narrow visual tasks. By incorporating these eye relaxation practices, you can maintain alertness and alleviate the negative effects of extended screen use.
