TEXTO:
Dim light — or alternatively, staring into the
multicolored tube at close range — can undoubtedly
make your eyes work so hard they hurt. But there is no
evidence that these practices cause long-term damage.
[5] The TV myth may have started in the 1960s, and at
that time, it may have been true. Some early color TV
sets emitted high amounts of radiation that could have
caused eye damage, but this problem has long been
remedied, and today’s TV and computer monitors are
[10] relatively safe.
Of course, a lot of TV watching can cause eye
strain and fatigue, particularly for those sitting very close
and/or watching from odd angles. But there is an easy
cure for eye strain and fatigue: turning off the TV and
[15] getting some rest. With a good night’s sleep, tired eyes
should quickly return to normal.
If you or your child tend to sit so close to the
computer or TV that it hurts the eyes, it may be a good
idea to get checked for nearsightedness. However,
[20] sitting too close does not create a need for glasses
even if getting glasses can remedy the habit.
