Many people today report that their eyes feel strained after short periods on a smartphone or computer. Small text may appear less sharp than it once did, and nighttime headlights can seem unusually bright or uncomfortable. These experiences are increasingly common and are often associated with prolonged screen exposure and modern visual habits.
As eye fatigue becomes more prevalent, interest has grown in traditional practices that cultures around the world have historically associated with eye comfort. One such practice, frequently discussed in informal wellness conversations, involves an unexpected household item: the onion. While not recognized as a medical treatment, the so-called onion eye ritual continues to attract attention as part of broader discussions about rest, hydration, and visual well-being.
