My eyes are getting weaker by the day. Gazing at the computer screen all day long sure does affect your eye sight. I went from perfect eye sight a yr ago to a -1. Now I have to wear glasses and it still seems that its getting weaker. Does anyone else has the same experience?
Yup. That's why you should always take a break every hour and do something else for a couple minutes to rest your eyes.
Sitting in front of the computer all day affects my eyes as well, I try to take a break before it gets really bad.
No matter how much money I might make. No amount of money can really be worth my eyes. Man..... And yeh you are right. When you are sitting in front of the computer you just dont realize whats really going on untill you realize that its been several hours.
And not only this it also leave occassional puffiness and dark circles. I am starting to lose my looks as well and iam only young.
Been staring at a screen for several years and just found out I need glasses 'cause my right eye is so bad that my left eye has been straining to make up for it and fatiguing my brain. Also found a small hole in my left retina (wonder if that's from the light). At least we know fluorescent light from lcd's have a really short wavelength, but I don't know about crt's. Still, if you get too close, just remember that tanning booths use fluorescent lights too. I think a lot of other factors ad to eye strain at the computer though (like everyone else has mentioned already).
My eyes were already bad. A lot of Tv can be just as bad, depending on how big it is and how closely you watch it.
Do you think Internet is going for second bubble burst? People do not renew their websites anymore..its true.. only young kids and sex oriented people surfing internet...?
Yea, but I've been wearing glasses since I was 2 so it's something that I'm used to. Get yourself a bottle of eye drops if you haven't already and use it whenever your eyes are bothering you.
I have one pool table and after every 30 minutes i go and play few shots than return to my pc with new fresh ideas .
I have the same problem like you guys...but you can definitely improve your eyesight by doing eye exercises.and getting healthy diet.like I did..good luck..
I've been near-sighted all my life on my right eye, with my left eye 98.6% blind. Been living on da internet since 1996, and yes, my seeing eye has changed. It's a blurried up world out there with out glasses!!!
I got glasses about 2 years ago. Not sure if it's genetic, or caused by too much nerding around. Either way, that's the way it is - no use worrying about it. Only bad thing is that these days I struggle to see my RC planes at crazy altitudes. I need a new prescription. I like wearing glasses, it makes me look trustworthy and respectable
Sitting in front of the computer practically the whole day for the last 10 years of my life has afftected not just my eyesight but I think I have developed a migrane out of it! My head aches more frequently now more than ever. Not to mention the dryness of my eyes that has been regularly happening these days. Geez!
