Doctors warn of 5 negative effects of sleeping on your side while playing with your phone, not just “making your face distorted”

Sleeping on your side while playing with your phone “makes your face distorted”! Doctors warn that the least impact is increased nearsightedness, but if done frequently, it risks long-term blindness.

When you lie on your side and play with your phone, your eyes are at different distances from the screen.

Dr. Li Xinyu, director of the Vision Center of Tongji Hospital, Huazhong University of Technology in China, said the lower eye is usually closer to the สนใจสมัคร? คลิกที่นี่เพื่อเริ่มต้น screen, which causes fatigue, eye muscle tension, and accelerates myopia.

Many studies have shown that sleeping on your side while watching your phone for a long time not only has negative effects on your health in many ways, but also causes facial disfigurement.

  1. Risk of “Smartphone Blindness”
    The New England Journal of Medicine reports that looking at your phone in the dark can cause the light-sensitive pigments in your retina to break down unevenly, resulting in “smartphone blindness,” which can cause dry eyes, blurred vision, or even temporary blindness.
  2. Stimulates inflammation.
    When lying down and playing with a mobile phone, blood flows to the eyes more, causing the blood vessels under the conjunctiva to dilate slightly, increasing the risk of chronic conjunctivitis.
  3. Risk of strabismus.
    Staring at a screen close together requires both eyes to focus together, similar to squinting. If done for a long time, the outer eye muscles will become tired, which can lead to permanent squint (same direction).
  1. Hurt your neck and back.
    Leaning against the head of the bed or sleeping on your side while watching your phone causes the cervical and lower spine to receive accumulated pressure. This can cause numbness in the hands, stiff neck, back pain, dizziness, and risk of spinal diseases in the long term.
  2. Accelerates the formation of bags under the eyes.
    Overusing the eyes causes the muscles around the eyes to fatigue, resulting in poor blood circulation around the eyes, causing the muscles and fascia around the eye sockets to relax, and accumulated fat to push out and become bags under the eyes.
