Dr. Huang Xuan pointed out the importance of blinking for eye and overall health, especially for modern individuals who rely heavily on electronic devices and are at risk of eye strain leading to conditions like macular degeneration. Blinking not only protects the eyes but also helps to improve concentration and mental focus. Research shows that blinking acts like a reflex that allows the eyes to rest and refocus, enhancing cognitive performance. Dr. Huang suggests regular eye rest breaks and following the '20-20-20' rule for screen usage to prevent eye strain and dry eyes caused by reduced blinking frequency due to excessive screen time and close distance.
