About this tool

Blinks Today Estimator counts something you never think about. Enter when you woke up and how many hours you spent on screens, and it estimates your blinks today, using an average of about 15 blinks a minute away from screens and roughly a third of that while staring at one.

The drop in blinking during screen use is one reason eyes feel dry after long sessions. A popular habit is the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
