Does taking my glasses off to 'let my eyes rest' actually have any meaningful effect? Or am I just making my eyes work harder? (feddit.uk)

Started wearing glasses full-time a few months ago and I usually take them off during my lunch break because, well I'm mainly looking at my sandwich and I've been told it's good to let your eyes 'relax' as such.

Is this BS, or does it actually have some value?

I only use my glasses to let my eyes rest, so I think it's the opposite.

Anecdotally.
