Technology has brought a lot of comfort in our lives as we can now order most of the things online in the comfort of our homes. The downside is that many people have got addicted to gadgets and spend a good amount of time either surfing, playing games, watching movies online, and more. This lethargy can be hazardous in the long run as continuously sitting in one position can take a toll on your body.

Apart from this, many people who work for long hours on the computer witness pain in the shoulder, neck, as well as the eyes. Reasons for the pain could either be sitting in a hunched position over the keyboard, monitor placed at an incorrect height, or sitting too close to the screen. You would have come across many such people who have IT jobs as they get too engrossed in their work and do not check on their sitting position from time to time.

There are many out there who consult orthopedic later on realize that there is a correlation between continuous headache, neck pain, and shoulder pain. Severe tension in the neck, shoulder, or upper back can be linked to vision problems. The pain put intense pressure on the eye nerves that are located on the back of the neck, which eventually causes migraines, nausea, and blurred vision.

If you frequently get frequent headaches or migraines, there is a possibility that you are eye muscles are strained which could, in turn, impact the vision. Glaucoma is another condition that occurs due to the build-up of pressure on the eyes and if not treated, it can result in vision loss.

The simpler solution to these migraines and other neck-related problems is getting your eyes checked to ensure that there is no change in your spectacles number. Other things you can try are adjusting the position so that the screen is at an arm’s length. Instead of bifocal lenses, you can switch to progressive lenses. You should also take breaks at regular intervals as it gives rest to your eyes. Correcting vision is the most ideal way to treat frequent headaches. The bottom line is that you should never ignore migraine and pain in areas like neck or back as it can cause problems to the entire body.

If you have elderly people in the house who have health concerns such as diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, age-related Macular Degeneration, Cataract, Glaucoma, etc., there are chances of them developing colour blindness. As the name suggests, colour blindness happens when people have difficulty in seeing different colors or they tend to mix them up. The common shades are red & green or blue & yellow.

According to a study, many people who suffer from migrane problems are also colour blind. It is particularly more evident in the male population. If any of your family members showcase severe migrane problems, you should get them checked for colour blindness as well.
