Safe Eyes: Open Source Eye Care for Linux

Prevent eye strain and repetitive strain injuries with Safe Eyes, an open source application for Linux that reminds you to take breaks when working long hours on the computer, allowing customizable breaks and tracking computer usage.

What is Safe Eyes Linux?

Safe Eyes is an open source application designed for the Linux operating system to help prevent computer vision syndrome and repetitive strain injuries. It reminds users to take periodic breaks when working long hours on the computer to protect eye and body health.

The software allows setting customizable break intervals, with options to set the duration of breaks, type of breaks (eyes exercise or walking break), and length of computer usage time before enforcing a break. Users can customize breaks based on their needs.

During breaks, Safe Eyes locks the computer screen and provides instructions and ideas for simple eyes exercises to do, such as looking away from the screen, blinking, or refocusing eyes. This gives eyes and body a chance to rest.

In addition to customizable breaks, Safe Eyes tracks computer usage time and idle time. This allows users to monitor their usage and take additional voluntary breaks as needed. Reports provide graphs of usage patterns.

Being open source software, Safe Eyes is free to download and use. It is designed specifically for Linux operating systems. The simple graphical user interface makes it easy to install and configure.
