I think I’ll use this space to share the random things I think about, notice and learn about life.

Some serious, funny, or probably unnecessary.

But hopefully, some will make you think, smile or see things a little differently.

If that’s your kind of thing, you’re welcome here

Day 2 of breaking down everyday eye conditions I see with zero medical jargon.

Have you ever felt a heavy, gripping ache right behind your eyes after staring at a screen all day?

It could be Digital Eye Strain. Let’s talk about it

[Praise Obasi @praise_builds]

@poetclem Is this joke?

[Praise Obasi @praise_builds]

Should You Be Worried?

It is usually temporary and doesn't cause permanent damage, but it ruins your productivity and comfort.

The fix? Use the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.

Found this helpful? retweet, and follow for Day 3.

It could be Digital Eye Strain. Let’s talk about it

[Praise Obasi @praise_builds]

What Causes it?

•Staring at screens without blinking enough (your blink rate drops by half!).
•Glare and harsh blue light reflecting off your screens.
•Holding your phone too close to your face.
•Poor room lighting contrasting with your bright screen.

What is Digital Eye Strain?

It happens when your eyes are locked onto a digital screen for hours without a proper break.

In simple terms, the tiny ciliary muscles inside your eyes are holding a heavy dumbbell all day without dropping it. So by evening, they are exhausted.

@pretty_eni26 The things I judged from afar happened to me this year

@BigmarvelSW E say na student found 😂

[Praise Obasi @praise_builds]

This is actually very common many don’t realize.

But I wouldn't call "How was your night?" a grammatical error. Context matters too.

“Did you sleep well?” is more appropriate to ask of someone in the morning if you really want to know whether they had a good night’s rest.

"How was your night?"

No no no I must register this boy for WAEC.

@onlywithn This was me composing paragraphs of my intended breakup message in my notepad 🥲

@Araoluwanimi01 Having God on your side regardless of your rebellion >>>

@_Oluwanifemii You didn’t use the hand to hold another part of your body that’s why.

@bibzyCarter Nutritional value matters

Congratulations 🎉

But you people go to a uni for photography? or?

[Bigkiks @bigkiks001]

And this is how a photographer graduates 🎓

@Callmedmi D is a carry over.

Should You Be Worried?

In most cases, it is harmless, painless and does not affect vision. The blood usually clears on its own within 1–2 weeks.
