Every twenty minutes at a screen, look at something twenty feet away for twenty seconds.
Every 20 minutes at a screen, look at something about 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Screen work cuts blink rate, which dries the eye and tires the focusing muscle; the far gaze lets both reset. Set a recurring timer rather than trusting yourself to notice — by the time eyes feel tired, the break is already overdue. Pair it with standing up and the break costs nothing extra.
