# Computer use after PRESBYOND

Computer use after PRESBYOND is usually possible soon, but both dryness and ongoing near adaptation can make early screen work more tiring. Simple strategies improve comfort.

## Starting Back at Screens

Short sessions are generally acceptable within a day or two.

- Begin with brief periods and increase gradually as comfort and clarity allow.
- Use preservative‑free artificial tears regularly, particularly during screen use.
- Follow the 20‑20‑20 rule to rest your eyes and reduce strain.
- Optimise lighting, contrast, and font size for easier near focus.

## Supporting Adaptation

Healthy habits help the visual system adjust.

- Position the monitor slightly below eye level to reduce ocular surface exposure.
- Take frequent breaks from small‑print or high‑detail tasks in the first few weeks.
- Report persistent blur, double images, or headaches at review visits.
- Combine screen strategies with any additional dry‑eye measures recommended by your clinician.
