Reading on a mobile phone for long periods can cause eye strain, dryness, and even headaches. One of the most effective ways to protect your eyes is to follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. Also, reducing screen brightness and enabling “night mode” or “blue light filter” can significantly decrease the harmful impact of blue light, especially in dim environments.

Additionally, maintaining the right distance between your eyes and the phone (about 16–18 inches) helps reduce strain. Avoid reading in complete darkness, as the contrast between the screen and the dark surroundings can fatigue your eyes faster. Regular blinking, proper hydration, and using artificial tears if needed can also keep your eyes moist and comfortable.
