For long days at a screen: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
The preset8 h
focus "Work block" 8h open cue every 20m for 20s along "Look 20 feet away"
How it works
Eye doctors recommend it to reduce eye strain. Work keeps counting; the cue runs alongside it.
Here it is one open work block with a quiet cue every 20 minutes. Stop whenever you are done.
When it suits
- Full workdays at a laptop
- Long coding or design sessions
Watch out for
Twenty seconds is short. Actually look out of a window; do not just glance away.
