All my lectures are online and prerecorded, meaning my screen time is regularly above 8-9 hours, and I am getting a feeling that my eyes are suffering, what do you guys to do to minimize degradation?

Get outside and get some natural light everyday. They say there's a hormone produced when sun enters the eyes, and lack of this hormone causes nearsightedness.

Blink! They say we don't blink as much with screens.

Dark mode. Looking at screens is literally staring at a light bulb.

Put yourself near windows to increase your natural light.
