The Dhaka Times Desk Whether you use your smartphone all day or not, does it ever happen that you don't use your smartphone for a while before going to bed at night? But be careful because you can get blind!
According to media reports, experts say this is not a very good thing. You can temporarily go blind because of using a smartphone while lying in bed in the dark!
It is claimed that two people suffering from such disease have been found recently. One of them, a 22-year-old woman, reported problems seeing in her right eye at night. He said that this problem has occurred several times over the course of a year. But there was no problem in his left eye at night. And he did not have any problem in both eyes during the day.
Another 40-year-old woman reported being unable to see in one eye after waking up before sunrise. He said that this problem lasted for 15 minutes. He has been suffering from this problem for about 6 months.
Doctors found the problem stemmed mainly from their habit of staring intently at their smartphones for a few minutes before going to sleep.
The doctors said that the other eye of both the victims was stuck to the pillow because they were looking at the phone while lying on the pillow. That's why the eye that used to be closed on the pillow gets used to the darkness. The other eye gets used to the light while looking at the smartphone. When the smartphone was turned off, the eye used to the light was momentarily 'blinded'. Then, when the temporarily blind eye re-adjusts to the darkness, it returns to normal.
Then the doctors conducted a test on those patients. Both were asked to look at their phones once using both eyes simultaneously and another time with one eye. After that, the two patients said that after using both eyes to look together, they had no more problems.
That's why the doctors initially confirmed that they had such a problem due to the use of smartphones. It is better to avoid using smartphones as much as possible while sleeping.
