I have been a nerd all my life with long reading and computer hours. My eyesight has barely gotten worse.
Here are the things that I do:
- Blue light filter on all screens, whenever indoors. That's 100% of times on most days.
- Lowest possible viable brightness on all devices.
- Ambient lighting. An expensive RGB strip on the back of the monitor works. So does $4 table lamp from Amazon behind the monitor.
- ARC glasses/blue light cutting glasses on 24 hours.
- I take breaks often following a pomodoro cycle. And I go outside in those. I categorically avoid any kind of scrolling or checking on devices (after I read and followed Deep Work by Newport).
- I eat a lot of vegetables.
I got glasses in 2nd standard. And people who got glasses latter than me and many less nerdy than me have thicker glasses now.
I sit in front of a screen for 12-14 hours a day for years. I don't suffer from anything eye-related.
