About This Feature

Overview

WPS Eye Care Mode helps adjust the spreadsheet editing area for a more comfortable viewing experience during long work sessions on Mac. You can turn it on from the View tab or switch it from the status bar. When enabled, the editing area changes to a softer display tone for easier viewing.

Core tasks include:

Turn Eye Care Mode on or off from the View tab when you want a clear menu entry.
Switch Eye Care Mode from the status bar during editing.
Use Eye Care Mode as a display-only setting that does not change document content, cell fill, or print output.

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Provides an Eye Care Mode entry inside the spreadsheet editing interface. Based on the feature behavior shown in WPS materials, users can switch it from the View tab or the status bar, and the page can change to a softer viewing color.	Microsoft Excel officially documents Dark Mode for menus and sheet background, but the referenced support page focuses on Excel for Windows.	Google Sheets officially documents Dark theme for mobile apps, with an option to preview a sheet in light theme.	Notion officially supports switching between dark mode and light mode on desktop through a shortcut, which is a workspace theme setting.	Adobe Acrobat officially supports light and dark mode on the web, mainly for PDF viewing.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS offers a spreadsheet-focused eye comfort entry directly inside the editing view. Distinct: users can switch it from both the ribbon area and the status bar.	Compared with WPS: the official Excel page centers on Windows sheet dark mode, so the Mac spreadsheet entry is less direct in the cited documentation.	Compared with WPS: the official guidance mainly covers mobile theme switching rather than a dedicated spreadsheet eye comfort entry on Mac.	Compared with WPS: Notion provides app theme switching, not a spreadsheet-specific eye care mode.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat focuses on PDF reading interfaces rather than spreadsheet editing.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Eye Care Mode is more closely aligned with spreadsheet editing on Mac, with a direct entry and short switching steps. Other products also provide dark or theme-based viewing options, but their documented scope varies by platform and product type.
