【正文】 spend hours a day looking at puter screens and other digital devices. Some eye doctors say this leads to an increase in “puter vision syndrome(電腦視力綜合癥 ).” Nathan BonillaWarford is an optometrist（驗(yàn)光師） in Tampa, Florida. He has seen an increase in problems in children. “A lot more children e into the office either because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes or disfort, or because their nearsightedness appears to be increasing and they?re worried,” he says. BonillaWarford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely to pay no attention to early warning signs than adults. “Even if their eyes start to feel unfortable or they start to get a headache, they?re less likely to tell their parents, because they don?t want to have the game or the puter or whatever taken away,” he explains. He says another part of the problem is that people blink（眨眼） less often when they use digital devices . He says, “A person who uses an electronic device blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying protected like normal.” Eye doctors offer suggestions like following which is known as the 20/20/20 rule. That means every twenty minutes look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device you?re using. Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital devices—with no screen time for children under two. But not all eye doctors have noticed an increase in problems in children. Dr. David Hunter, from Children?s Hospital Boston, has not seen an increase in his practice. “While it is possible to develop fatigue looking at screens for a long period of time, there?s certainly no proof that it actually causes any damage to the eyes.”he says. 24.

Using Digital Devices: Advantages and Disadvantages C A strong belief of mine is that the drinking age should be increased. I don’t believe that at 21 most people are either mature enough or responsible enough to handle drinking. Alcohol is one of the most monly abused drugs. It always was and it always will be. I believe we should take that into account and make some changes to the laws. —— Jimmydane34 Beautifulspirit Nov. 17, 2021 at 5:50 pm: Unfortunately there is no specific or exact age upon reaching maturity. And teens are still going to find some ways to abuse alcohol no matter what the laws are. This is reality—but you?re right. We can monitor this situation better—not just for kids but for everyone. Stuber Nov. 17, 2021 at 9:26 pm: I disagree. I think since you are a legal adult at 18, and can join the military at 18, you can make your own decisions. So if you want to drink, you should be able to drink and face the consequences. AaronLawrence Nov. 18, 2021 at 11:29 am: I definitely agree that the age should be increased. People at any age aren?t responsible anyway, let alone people who are younger than 21. Alcohol itself should be banned. Many families are affected by drunk drivers every day .
