General information about habits and record keeping, not medical advice. If something about your eyes worries you, see an eye care professional.
Why these tools
Most screen discomfort comes down to habits: long stretches without a break, blinking less while you concentrate, and a setup that makes you lean in. These tools help with the habit side and with keeping a record. They don't test your eyes, and a score or a timer can't tell you anything about your vision.
