r u frequent user of computer???

A computer will not permanently harm your eyes, that is a myth.

But if the OP is any indication, it does effect your spelling and grammar.

 

I spend 8hrs a day and usually after spending 4hrs my eyes begin to "tear as in tears". especially when the refresh rate is @ 60hz . 60hz is bad to your eyes!!

 

This is an ironic question to be asking on 'webmaster' forums

But back to the topic...

I spend about 3-4hrs daily, most of the time I spend studying or playing violin.

 

Dim your monitor, should lower the strain on your eyes

 

it depends if i am working i spend about 6-7 hrs a day after wotk

if i am not working like at the moment anything from 12-18hrs a day

 

I spend all my awake time 80 % computer 10 % in bed eating looking tv or doing something else. 8 % in the fitness center and the rest of the 2 % i cook the food or walking back.

 

I use to stay on PC for about 8-10 hrs, still eyes are Thank God fine but cant work on PC without screen filter.

 

I also usually sit more then 8 hours a day. Doctors advise to blink more often it will help to keep your eyeball wet, which vital for eyes.

 

Woah you all use the computer far too much .
I only go on a couple of hours a day.

 

Some of us spent a few hours on DP alone. In addition with other activities, it turned out to be long hours being spent per day. =p

 

Yep, I am.I use pc for like 8 hours daily and when i have holidays i use pc all the time!!!!!!!!

I use for 14-16 hours and sometimes have worked on it 48 hours straight. Dosent hurt me. There are some good habits to follow.

Do not look at it constantly.
Look to white wall or pictures on the wall every 15-20 mins.
See lots of gree in free time.
Even have a wallpaper on your computer with lots of green in it( like a nature scene).
Put nature photos if possible in your room specially behind the computer.
Sprinkle water (not hot) preferably cold in your eyes whenever possible.
A good chair is a must.
Take 5 mins break and get out of your seat as frequently you can(once every hour).
Keep the contrast of your monitor low if possible.
Hope this helps

 

Well its already 5:30 Am here now. I better get some sleep

 

I spend 10 hours+ on my computer, my eyes are getting worse

I am going to get that screen filter definately, I think screens are dangerous for your eyes and radiation as well lol

 

i work for more than 8 hours per day in front of computers. It hasn't hurt my eyes.
