    According to a study, half of British people own smart phones and they spend an average of two hours a day using them . There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness since smart phones were introduced there in 1997.

    Staring at smart phones for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink a certain number of times. However ,when you look at things closer  to your face ,the blinking slows down . This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smart phones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma.
