Experts warn that spending too much time looking at smart mobile phones and computer screens can shorten one’s life by affecting not only one’s eyes but also other bodily functions.
Researchers at the Nonprofit Buck Institute in California, USA, have found that constant exposure to light in the eyes can aggravate chronic diseases in the body by affecting the normal functioning of other organs.
The eyes, unlike other body parts, are highly exposed to the outside world, so their immune system is highly active.
In this case, the disruption of the above defense function is detrimental to the internal bodily functions. This causes other parts of the body to be affected.
Researchers warn that prolonged exposure to screens, including mobile phones and computers, which are part of the electronics world, can cause serious health problems over time.
According to Dr. Pankaj Kabahi, a professor and nutritionist who participated in the study, observing computer and mobile phone screens for long periods of time at night can cause light pollution and impair the balance of movement of other body organs.
