Weary Eyes

[-Carlos-]

After having a long sessions of reading, do you get weary eyes?

You lose your visual focus and you have to close your eyes for a few minutes. I hate it when it happens to me, like right now.

Maybe you need an eye test for some reading glasses. It helps to take a break - go and make some coffee, go to the loo (or whatever you call it in the US) - for fifteen mins or so.

Prescription glasses? I sure hope not. Will I look like this:

Red eyes

Yes, it's not a joke, I get weary eyes when I read for hours or when I work on the computer, my eyes get red
Breaks don't seem to help, especially if I have to study for an exam and stay up.

Eyestrain is no joke. I have to stop reading now and then just to rest these old eyes. I've also found that when I'm overtired, my eyelids twitch..talk about annoying..

I hate twitchy eyes... it always makes me feel like I'm spazzing out. My eyes don't get weary, they just get dry. And occasionally I'll get a headache if I've been reading for too long. The only solution I've found is sleep.

Not joking about the reading glasses. As you get a little older they really help, especially if you do lots of reading; preventing eyestrain. I wear them, very fashionable ones too.

My eyes tend to dry out. This is worse when on the computer than when reading a book. The only way of ameliorating it is to take a break. I'm going to see my optician about some glare-reducing computer specs; the ones I have are the wrong strength.

I wanted to finish reading my current novel last night, but I suffered from those weary eyes so I decided to go to bed. I dislike it too.

I already wear glasses so no need for that suggestion!
