Screen time and eye fatigue in young adults
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how digital screens tire your eyes and affect your vision, especially if you are nearsighted or have dry eyes. Researchers will test your eye function before and after screen use to understand the impact and possibly help improve future eyewear.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 35 years old.
- You use screens for more than 4 hours every day.
- You have normal vision or mild-to-moderate myopia (nearsightedness) that can be corrected with glasses or contact lenses.
- You have no other eye diseases (except possibly dry eye) and no history of eye surgery or serious eye injury.
- You do not wear rigid or overnight contact lenses, and you do not wear soft contacts for more than 12 hours a day.

This study tests a new way to measure how nearsighted you are and how much astigmatism you have, using your glasses prescription. If you qualify, you'll help them develop a simpler tool for future eye checks.
This study tests if a smartphone-attached device can help people with dry eye disease take pictures of their eyes at home for monitoring. It aims to show that patients can use it themselves for continuous care.
This study looks at how dry eye, heavy smartphone use, and poor sleep are connected in young people. By joining, you'll help researchers understand these links, which could lead to better ways to prevent and treat dry eye.
This study tracks how much time children spend looking at screens versus outdoor activities and how that relates to their eye health over 3 years. Researchers will give your child a special device to wear at home to measure their visual habits.
This study tests if a smartphone can take clear pictures and videos of your eyes to help doctors check for dry eye disease. It may be a simpler way to evaluate dryness from home.
This study tests a special lens designed to slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It is for kids who spend at least one hour a day on screens and currently wear regular glasses.
