I don't watch TV during the day, and I don't spend more than two and a half hours in front of the TV at night. I use my eyes continuously for about three quarters of an hour, that is, I turn around and look out of the window for a few minutes to relax my eye muscles. At the same time, the distance between the eyes and the screen is more than one and a half meters.
