Fresh Eyes

Take care of your eyes. Fresh Eyes is a super lightweight app that helps prevent

computer vision syndrome by reminding you to take regular eye breaks. It helps

you stick with the 20-20-20 rule recommended by eye care professionals around

the world:

Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break to look at something 20 feet

(approximately six meters) away.

How it works:

• Runs idle in the background, using minimal system resources

• Sends you a reminder every 20 minutes to rest your eyes

• Displays a fullscreen countdown during your 20-second break

• Plays a discrete sound when the quick break is over

Key features:

• Simple, minimalist design without any bloat

• Sits in your menu bar

• Keyboard shortcuts to postpone or disable breaks as needed

• Status bar icon turns red if you've missed several breaks

• One-time purchase; no subscriptions, no additional payments

• No ads

Fresh Eyes is designed for everybody who spends long hours in front of a

computer screen. By encouraging you to regularly look away from your monitor, it

can help reduce eye strain, prevent dry eyes by making you blink more, and

combat digital fatigue.

The app's simplicity is its strength – it does one job and does it well, without any

complicated setup or intrusive notifications. Just install and let it run in the

background while you work.

Taking care of your eyes doesn't have to be complex or disruptive to your

productivity. With its unobtrusive break reminders, Fresh Eyes encourages

healthier screen habits. It's a straightforward tool that can benefit anyone who sits

at their Mac for extended periods.
