Eye exercises, step by step
Every exercise EyeFit's routines use, written out as a plain step-by-step guide with its demo video, what you need, and when to stop. Read one on its own, or let the EyeFit timer walk you through a whole routine.

EyeFit strings these exercises into 22–30 minute routines with a countdown for every step, a beep when it is time to move on, and the demo one tap away. It is free and runs in your browser. For the rest of the working day there is the 20-20-20 break timer.
