About Screen Sight Care

The 3pm headaches started about three years into working fully remote. Every afternoon, same time, same low-grade fog that made me read the same line of code twice and still not parse it. My optometrist had a name for it: digital eye strain. I was at three monitors from 8am to sometimes 7pm. Apparently that adds up.

Blue light glasses made some difference. Not enough to stop the daily pattern. I started looking into eye supplements and found the information landscape messy and hard to evaluate -- promises I could not verify, review sites that all seemed to reference the same talking points. So I built a spreadsheet and started tracking. Fourteen months, seven supplements tested one at a time with gaps between each, weekly fatigue notes, monthly cost breakdowns. It became the most methodical side project I have run outside of actual software.

This site is the output. I write about what I tested, what the data looked like week to week, and what I actually think is worth considering if you spend a serious chunk of your day at a screen. Not a doctor. Not an optometrist. I have no background that qualifies me professionally. I am a developer in Austin who tracks things obsessively and decided the same approach that works for debugging code might work for figuring out what was going wrong with my eyes.
