The ‘blink box’ displays whether your blink rate is high, medium or low. It works by displaying a coloured outbounding box around the active window to indicate your current blink rate. Warning messages can be displayed to alert you of a fall in your blink rate. Prompts can also be given to encourage you to take regular eye breaks.

A selection of desktop screensavers can visually dry up if your blink rate falls below the recommended average. The wallpaper becomes lush and vibrant again with high blink rates or by taking a break.

The dock updates in real time to display your average blink rate. The ‘blink counter’ displays the users average blink rate per minute in an optional widget.

20 min. 20 ft. 20 sec.

20-20-20 Follow the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, take an eye break and look 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This will give you a chance to blink and produce some tears and will give your eye muscles a chance to relax.
