I'm genuinely interested in what steps do other people on HN who spend their work day on a computer take to "protect" their vision ?
I took on the habit of looking a distant wall every half hour or so for a couple minute or go drink a coffee, but while it helps with the "always looking close" vision I still have a very tired feel in my eyes at the end of a long day.
I do have good vision and have it checked every year, but I worry I'm doing some long term damage anyway, and the white of my eyes does look more bloodshot than they do in average people my ages (and gets a lot worse after big long hours release/bugfix days).

Do you guys have any tips to help the eyes rest ?
