Your eyes and television

When the screen is well positioned, watching television does not hurt your eyes or your vision. Under proper conditions this activity requires much less visual concentration than do reading, writing or sewing. However, sustained attention or too short a viewing distance can tire one's eyes, especially if done for long periods if time or under bad ambient lighting conditions.

To avoid visual fatigue while watching television, it is recommended to keep a distance equal to five (5) times the size of your TV screen. Also the eyes of the viewer should be at the same level as the screen. Any distance eyeglass prescription should be worn.

If you have any questions , do not hesitate to contact your Opto-Reseau optometrist.
