Why Your Eyes Are Killing Your Productivity (And How to Fix It) | Dr. Pam Theriot

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Pam Theriot to break down something I didn’t even realize was affecting my performance—my eyesight. We talked about how screen time is crushing our productivity, causing brain fog, and even impacting our mental health. I learned that something as simple as blinking, taking short breaks, and managing screen exposure can dramatically improve focus and energy. If you’re an entrepreneur who spends hours in front of a screen and feels drained, this conversation might completely change how you approach your day. ‍️ About Dr. Pam Theriot Dr. Pamela Theriot, OD, FAAO, is an internationally recognized optometrist, TEDx speaker, author, and dry eye specialist.
