Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products are disclosed for automatically adjusting a display to obscure application data. In an example, a computer-implemented method may include collecting eye data from a user, receiving the eye data collected from the user, analyzing the eye data, determining that eyesight of the user is on a display based on the eye data, providing data on the display to the user when the eyesight of the user is determined to be on the display, determining that the eyesight of the user is off the display, obscuring the data on the display in response to determining that the eyesight of the user is off the display, removing the obscuring applied to the data on the display when the eyesight of the user returns to the display.
