Ask HN: How do you take care of your eyes?

Same here. At my previous job, my desk was positioned directly below an HVAC vent. This was in DC, and I used to feel more relieved stepping outside into 90 degree humidity, because my eyes were so parched.

Someone really needs to invent a detachable, re-sizable vent cover that can block or redirect air flow, and yet still be easily removable for irritating building superintendent inspections.

That's very useful, thanks. I like the 2nd option. Fortunately, I have since moved on to another job, but I will definitely keep these in mind.

Stupid question, but would wearing a baseball cap help?

I am female and work in an office setting with a dress code. Otherwise, I agree that that makes a lot of sense!
