whatever they might be. so, the u.s. army masters not only tactics and strategy, but also physics and chemistry. we make battle plans and create breakthroughs - in medicine, science and engineering. our next mission could be anything. so we prepare for everything. seems like we've hit a road block. that reminds me... anyone have occasional constipation, diarrhea... ...gas, bloating? yes! one phillips' colon health probiotic cap each day helps defend against occasional digestive issues. with three types of good bacteria. live the regular life. phillips'. guys listen up! jake, put that down point it at the ground til your ready that's not the ground leo put that down when your day goes on and on, you need 48 hour odor protection that goes on clear for no white marks.

all right. let's face it. a lot of us are guilty of spending way too much time in front of a screen, whether it's at the office or the tablet or watching tv. >> here to talk about protecting your eyes is dr. christopher starr. he happens to be my doctor. >> he's adorable. >> an ophthalmologist. >> how are you? >> i'm well, thank you, thank you. >> a lot of things people worry about, a lot of us do camp in front of the computer or you have your phone or tablet. >> nine hours a day on average. it can strain the eyes and dry out the eyes. we see this very commonly, every day. and we have tips on how to prevent what's called computer vision syndrome. >> show us. we happen to have a computer from the 1980s here.

is that what a computer looks like? >> this is a desk top computer or laptop on a desk. there's something called the 20/20/20 rule, every 20 minutes, take a break from the computer, take a look at some distant object 20 feet' way or further for 20 seconds or more. and one of the other things that we recommend is keeping the screen a little bit below eye level and tilt it like that so you're kind of looking down at it. so your eyes aren't wide open staring at it. >> what if you use bigger print so you're not straining. >> that does reduce the strain, yes. but even if you're staring at a big print, at this fixed distance all day long, the imusles get very strained. >> i have dry eyes. >> drops. >> i use restasis, and i'm proud to say it. >> don't you remember your parents always saying don't sit too close to the tv?

there was more radiation and things. ail safer. but the dryness that you mentioned is a real thing. we stare at a computer and don't blink. the blink rate decreases by 50%. and when you're staring, the res stay tasis and blinking helps. >> people don't like to go to the doctor. and i'm speaking for people like me. how often should one go? >> it varies with age. kids, newborns should be screened, especially if there's prematurity or congenital predisposition. through childhood years they get screened at schools, but every few years in general, pediatric optometrists. and then from the ages of 20 to 40, one of the big misconceptions is if i see well and don't have pain, i don't need to go.

if you haven't seen a doctor see one. as we get older, more frequent. >> let's go to the sunshine. >> people don't realize you can do bad damage to your cornea, retina. >> everything. >> nobody would go bathing without spf 50. but we think of sunglasses as the equivalent of say an spf 50 for your eyes. sun can cause growth on the eyes, macular degeneration, tumors, melanoma. so you want to find a nice pair of skun grasses that block out the uv light. >> and after 60, not that i know, you have to go every year. i go more often. >> of course i wonder why. >> don't take your eyes off liliana. she's going to show you how to wear the hottest trend in denim with flare. >> but first, this is "today", on nbc. >> thank you! dry spray? i've never used one of these before.
