Screens, eyes and sleep, sentence 0
Screens are not poison for your eyes, but when you stare at a game you blink much less, so your eyes dry out and feel tired; looking far away and blinking for a moment fixes it.
Who acts: Screens, you, eyes · What happens: not be, stare, blink, dry out, feel, look · To what, where: poison, game
