If you your eyes are dry and sore, especially in winter, especially in an
air-conditioned office, especially when you stare all day at the computer
screen, these are not the negative effects of mythical computer radiation.
The cause of the pain is that when you stare at something, you tend to blink
much less than required, leaving your eyes without enough natural moisturising.
The lack of lube causes the eyeball to rub the eyelid and vice versa,
which makes them both sore. This gel eye mask should help you ease the
pain. Just hold it in the freezer for 20 minutes, and then immediately put it
on your eyes. At first it would be intolerable to bear this treatment even
for a minute, but as the cold provides almost immediate relief, you'll get
used to it soon enough. The cold also tapers blood vessels and reduces eye
bags, which is an added cosmetic value.
