Virtual learning and eye care tips

Parents can tackle this problem from three aspects. First, ensure the sitting posture of your children is correct. Second, massage the ‘Jing Ming’ acupoint to relieve tired eyes. Third, use an appropriate amount of chrysanthemum flower, common selfheal plant (‘Xia Gu Cao’), black sesame, cashew nut, black bean, and wolfberry to prepare food or soup, as these ingredients can replenish the liver and kidney.
Tips for computer usage:
- Ensure sufficient lighting
- The size of the computer’s monitor and its brightness should be appropriate
- Keep a distance between the monitor and the eyes; 70cm for desktops, 40cm for tablet PCs
- Take a 10-minute break every one hour, stare into the distance and look at the greenery around
