5. Take computer breaks to keep yourself from having an eye strain.
When you sit at a computer all day, it can cause tension headaches. By getting up and letting your eyes rest, it’ll give you a chance to focus on something else instead of the computer screen. If you can’t get up, close your eyes for a few minutes. If you are having a tension headache, by closing your eyes, that headache will cease.
When you open it back up and look back directly at the screen, it may make the headache come back. So, when you open your eyes, take your time. You may want to open your eyes and focus on something else. A large number of people have tension headaches because of the use of technology.
Just about everyone uses some form of technology, including iPads, iPhones, and laptops. Whenever you see someone, they have their eyes towards their electronic device.
