20-20-20 rule:
Take breaks and follow the 20-20-20 rule One of the simplest ways to protect your eyes from excessive screen time is to take frequent breaks. A good way to ensure that you’re getting adequate breaks is to follow the 20-20-20 rule, which means taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away. This gives your eyes a chance to relax and prevents eye strain. Additionally, you can also close your eyes for a few seconds or blink rapidly to moisturise them.

Three Family Members Lost Their Sight – But Their Blindness Was Treatable
This family of six in Kenya was already struggling to get by, but when Eveline lost her sight, their situation became even more desperate. The entire household could only rely on her husband’s back-breaking work delivering water to survive—each day grew harder.
Eveline said: "Before going blind, I would fry and sell chips at the market to earn an income - but I had to stop."
Ruth has repeated her school level twice and remains in a class with children two to three years younger than her. “She relies on her older brother to write her homework – something that doesn’t please her,” father Boniface said. Vincent is also unable to fully enjoy the world around him.
Eveline worries about being able to maintain the house. “My house is also not very hygienic – this is happening because I have no eyes to see and do things on my own,” she said. Eveline’s wish was simple—like any mother, she only prayed for her children to have healthy vision, so they could be self-reliant and have a better future.
Thanks to the generosity of donors, all three of them have now regained their sight.
Your donation of HKD150 can help restore sight to up to a patient living in remote areas.
The operation was successful. “When I was writing it wasn’t clear and I couldn’t read books properly. Now I can study much better because my eye was operated on.
I’m so happy because I can see better," said Marlone. “I could see the pimples on my mum’s face,” the cheeky 10-year-old jokes. “That’s really the first thing I saw really clearly!”
