Hello Dear

I know this is a big problem for children, I would suggest you to take some break for online classes and take time for children, help them in studies, give healthy diet to you children and do some light exercises for eyes so that eyes doesn't effect like you can ask with a eyes specialist for some light exercises so you can do the same with your children. Give soaked badaam in the morning with milk. Add green vegetables in children diet and add more fruits. Sleep is must for children for atleast 8 to 9 hours in a day.

It's completely understandable to be worried about your children's eye health with so much screen time. Many mothers are facing this challenge. First, ensure they take regular breaks – encourage the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This helps relax their eye muscles. Make sure their study space has good lighting and that the screen is at arm's length, slightly below eye level.

Encourage them to blink more often and gently splash cool water on their eyes after classes. A diet rich in Vitamin A (like carrots and green leafy vegetables) and plenty of water is also beneficial. For immediate relief from mild discomfort, a cool compress over their eyes can be soothing. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult an eye specialist (ophthalmologist) without delay to rule out any underlying issues. Their vision is precious, so let’s be proactive!
