  • EARLY CHILDHOOD

    Protecting children from DIGITAL STRAIN

    With a rising number of parents using tech gadgets to pacify toddlers, it’s unsurprising that over the past decade there’s been a corresponding increase in the incidence of digital eye strain among young children. Children below five years are most vulnerable to ocular damage, as their still-developing eyes are unable to cope with the speed of moving images on electronic screens.

    Digital eye strain, aka computer vision syndrome (CVS), describes a group of eye and vision-related problems that result from prolonged computer, tablet and mobile phone usage. Among the most common symptoms associated with CVS are eyestrain; headaches: blurred vision; dry eyes and neck and shoulder pain.

    “Over the past six years I have witnessed an increase in the number of children under five suffering vision-related problem. Most complain of photophobia i.e, discomfort or pain to the eyes due to light exposure, and dry eyes. Prolonged exposure to digital screens can have damaging consequences on children’s eyes. Parents need to desist from using smart phones and computer tabs as pacifiers,” says Dr. Dahlia Krishnan, consultant ophthalmologist, Dr. Sreekanth’s Eyecare, Calicut.

    DRY EYE SYNDROME

    According to Krishnan, symptoms of dry eye syndrome are irritation, redness, and discharge.”While viewing mobile phones, children often forget to blink because because they are transfixed by fast moving digital images. This is a major cause of dry eyes. With every blink, the surface of the eye is moistened so WHEN CHILDREN don’t blink enough irritation prompts a child to rub her eyes which causes greater discomfort, leading to dry eye syndrome,” she explains.

    Krishan advises older children and adults to take a break after every 20 minutes on screen, and look into the distance for 20 seconds, allowing eye muscles to relax.

    MYOPIA

    Among the many vision-related problems traced to excessive digital screen focus are refractive errors such as myopia and astigmatism. The American Academy of Paediatric Opthalmology says that too much on-screen time can aggravate the myopia of children already suffering from this vision ailment. Moreover it can induce myopia in children who don’t have it.

    Comments Dr. Girijia Suresh,

    Consultant paediatric ophthalmologist, Fortis Hospital, Mulund, Mumbai: “On average, I ten children every month for ocular problems related to excess digital screen exposure. The blue light emitted from laptops and mobiles is absorbed by the eyes, making optical tissues vunerable to damage. Thre is a postulation that in the long this could cause major damage to the retina, and increase and increase the chances of earky onset of cataract. Moreover when children play video games or watch animated movies, they ussualy do it in dark rooms with the ight intensity constantly increasing and decreasing. For every change in light intensity, eyes have to accommodate the size of pupils which dialate and revert. This makes children vulnerable to myopia.”

    Dr. Suresh,s advice for digital screen time for children: 0-2 years-olds: nil; 2-5-years]-olds: 30 minutes per day and 6-14 years:1-2 hours per day.

    POSITION IT RIGHT

    Useful pointers on positioning of digital gadgets to minimize eye strain-

    • The correct distance for reading books, mobiles and tabs is 30 – 40 cm from the eyes.
    • The visual distance from screens of laptops and computers is 40 – 75 cm. This distance causes least eyestrain and reduces vision problems.
    • Uncorrected vision problems can increase digital eye train.
    • It’s advisable to view a computer or laptop sitting erect with eye looking downwards.
    • Optimally, digital screen should be 4- 5 inches below eye level. Always position monitors and screens to avoid glare from overhead lighting and reflections from windows.
  • FUN WITH WORDS

    In the name of EPONYMS

    It’s common practice to honor a person by naming a street/institution after her, but highly uncommon to have a word named after an individual. Eponym is a name/noun formed after a person. For instance, the Elizabethan age pertains to Queen Elizabeth I of England. Elizabethan is an eponym.

    In the modern world, many political trends were christened after politician who set them. For example, Stalinism and Thatcherism. Many places towns, cities or countries are eponymously named. For example, Vancouver is named after explorer George Vancouver.

    Medical jargon boats many eponyms with several diseases/viruses named after the site where they were discovered. These are known as geographic eponyms in medicine. Some examples:Bombay Blood Group,Jaipur Foot and Rocky Mountain spotted Fever. Plaster of Paris was named after the French capital when medicos there began using plaster to mend broken bones.

    Numerous verbs have also been derieved from historical figures with their names linked with their ideas/innovations .the word boycott,chauvinist,quislingand sandwich originate from personal names.

    Not surprisingly, famous people are eponyms for their innovative apparel. Cardigan is eponymous with the Earl of Cardigan and raglan is derived from Lord Raglan who saw action in the Crimean War.

    Unsurprisingly literature has inspired eponyms. It’s common to find eponymous terms in literary criticism such as Dickensenian for melodramatic poetry and eccentric characters, and Proustian for personal memories.Similarly, mythology has spawned many an eponym such as someone having the Midas touch, an Achilies’ heel and being Herculean or a Venus.

    Scientist are often honored for their innovations through linking their names with products-Rudolf Diese, Alessandro Volta and James Watt, or to process or Calculus. Likewise, botanist has plants named after them, such as magnolia and poinsettia.

    Alzheimer’s disesase is named after its discoverer. Dr Alois Alzheimer, a German physician , who presented the case history of a 51 year old woman who suffered froma rare brain disorder. Avogadro’s number is named after early 19th century Indian scientist Amedeo Avagadro, who in 1811, first proposed that the volume of gas is proportional to number of atoms and molecules irrespective of the nature of a gas.

    It is common to have companies named after their founders. For Instance when we refer to the eponymous founder of Ford Motor Company, we mean Henry Ford.

    Words are formed in many ways. Eponyms help us remember important people in history who have contributed to shaping the human condition.
