Advances in technology have forced us to use our eyes in ways we previously never have, causing eye strain. Perhaps the greatest culprit in technology-related eye strain is the computer. Millions of peoples  spend all day at a computer in order to fulfill their job responsibilities.

Video games and television provide further strain on our eyes.

Boost computer processor performance by over 20%

 "Chip manufacturers are now creating processors that have a 'fused architecture,' meaning that they include CPUs and GPUs on a single chip," says Dr. Huiyang Zhou, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering who co-authored a paper on the research. "This approach decreases manufacturing costs and makes computers more energy efficient. However, the CPU cores and GPU cores still work almost exclusively on separate functions. They rarely collaborate to execute any given program, so they aren't as efficient as they could be. That's the issue we're trying to resolve."

Easiest way to find low cost health insurance



The cost of health care seems to continue to rise each and every year. Finding a low cost health insurance plan is not always easy to do. Many people think the very idea of affordable health insurance is an impossibility. And it’s small wonder when over 50% of all families in New Jersey admit that paying for health insurance is a severe burden on the family budget and almost 17% of all New Jersey residents are without health insurance of any kind because they simply cannot afford to pay the monthly premiums.

How to Preventing Eye Injuries


It's common for a speck of dirt to get blown into your eye, for soap to wash into your eye, or for you to accidentally bump your eye. For these types of minor eye injuries, home treatment is usually all that is needed.

Some sports and recreational activities increase the risk of eye injuries.

    Very high-risk sports include boxing, wrestling, and martial arts.
    High-risk sports include baseball, football, tennis, fencing, and squash.
    Low-risk sports include swimming and gymnastics (no body contact or use of a ball, bat, or racquet).
