San Fransisco, CA -- (SBWire) -- 06/19/2012 --Millions of people around the world spend several hours every day sitting in front of a computer. Computers and the Internet have revolutionised the world, but this reliance on modern technology comes with a price. Computer eyestrain is now a major job-related complaint and nearly 90% of people who use a computer for at least three hours a day suffer from this complaint.

Eyes were not designed to stare at screens for long periods of time. Light reflecting off the monitor causes a glare, which can lead to blurred vision, headaches and dry, irritated eyes. Computer users should have an eye test once a year to establish whether they need to wear glasses for screen based work.

One Vancouver optometrist that Canadians are turning to for help with their vision problems is OMNI Eye + Vision.

“To ensure good eye health for life, it is essential to schedule regular eye check-ups. As the body ages, so do the eyes. There are various eye related issues and diseases that do not cause many symptoms and can only be diagnosed during a detailed exam,” explains a spokesperson.

The OMNI Eye website is simple and easy to use. Visitors to the home page will be able to read about the company’s fashionable designer eye glasses and eyewear, and pediatric eye care, as well as requesting an appointment for an eye test.
