Why Are My Eyes So Tired All the Time?

Constantly tired, heavy, or dry eyes? For most people who work at screens, the usual suspects are simple — and so are the fixes.

Common causes

• Too much screen time without breaks
• Not blinking enough, which dries the eyes
• Poor lighting or glare
• Not enough sleep
• Dry air from heating or AC

Easy fixes

Take regular screen breaks (the 20-20-20 rule helps), blink more, improve your lighting, and give your eyes a relaxing warm massage in the evening. A heated eye massager makes that last part effortless.

When to see a doctor

If your eyes are persistently painful, very dry, or your vision changes, see an eye-care professional. Ongoing symptoms are worth checking.
