Are bigger screen making people not go to Eye doctor?

[froggyboy604]

Do you think that people who use big monitors, phones, and tablets with bigger screens may not go to the eye doctor?

I think it is possible that some people who own bigger monitors on their desktop, laptop, smartphone, etc maybe less likely to go to a eye doctor to get a new glasses or contact lense prescription, and eye test since they own a bigger screen which enlarges the image so if they don't read books, newspapers, and labels with small fonts, they maybe less likely go to the eye doctor.

I think Bigger screens can also make people go to the Eye doctor more often because people who own bigger screens are more likely to spend many hours more in front of a monitor which may cause eye problems vs. someone who uses a small screen who may get a small screen because they are not a heavy TV, PC, or mobile user.

Bigger screens maybe more addictive because it is more enjoyable to play games, browse the web, and watch movies on a big screen vs. a small screen.

Spending too much time in front of a bright screen can cause dry eyes, and red eyes which may make people's vision worse if they don't take rests, and watch a screen for a few hours straight.

There are many factors which can hurt your eyes, and obviously it doesn't depend on screen size alone. What you do in front of your gadgets and its size may not matter much if you take around 15 minutes rest for every hour you stare at those. Not to forget healthy diet. (Although in case of your eyes getting minus or plus can hardly be corrected with diet.)

That's a good thing to post. I think bigger screens help people more to spot and get into things easily than smaller screens. It gives a magnified effect compared to small screen desktops, laptops and Televisions.

Yes it is possible to go to doctor if someone using big screen.

Maybe, but usually bigger screens (as far as PCs and phones) have higher resolutions, which means text and stuff is just as small as it is on a smaller screen.

In some cases, yes. If the screen is too small, or the display is too dim and people have to squint/struggle, it will cause them eye problems. Having a bigger and/or brighter display monitor can help drastically.

Maybe, but usually bigger screens (as far as PCs and phones) have higher resolutions, which means text and stuff is just as small as it is on a smaller screen.

I think a lot of Apps like web browsers, eBook reading apps, and video players have a Zoom in function to enlarge text, video and images, and more websites and programs/apps are increasing the size of their text and images to make reading easier on smaller and higher resolution screens, and to make their website easier to use for people with poor vision.

Although, a lot of people may not be taking full advantage of the zoom in, and enlarge text size function on web browsers, and Word Processors so they may still need prescription glasses to see a tablet, computer, or phone screen.

You should have them checked regularly to be honest as everything that we use in our daily lives is affecting our eyes more than say, 10 years ago ...

No I am not in favor of your opinion.The screen quality always matter.If you are using iphone 4s with small screen, then it would be worse to use a small company's 7 inch mobile screen for 5 hours consistently.
