Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Well i read your history. Let me jnform you that using phone doesn't cause much issues, but ya if you are using it at low brightness then yes it does strain your eyes. So its advisable to keep your brightness at auto setting or optimum level, not too bright nor too dull...
If its hampering you a lot , you can start lubricating eye drops. It ll give you soothening effect...
I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist once.
For any further query, you can contact me directly.
