Stress & Vision
Stress can influence the ocular system in various levels, from mild discomfort to severe, debilitating vision loss (Duff, 2019). In addition to various lifestyle factors and activities, an individual can experience eye stress through overwork and the greater use of technology. This advocates the need for vision care as means for better health and improved quality of life (Duff, 2019).

20-20-20 Rule
For those experiencing eye strain, it is recommended to take a 20-second break every 20 minutes, while focusing on an object that is located at least 20 feet away (Saha, 2017).
Visualization
Visualization can be used to enhance mediation and vision care by relaxing the mind to better direct specific outcomes (Raypole, 2020). This is not limited to looking at a landscape that is green (Southpaw, 2021), colour breathing, compassion meditation, and progressive muscle relaxation.
