Besides keeping your distance about 1 meter away from the screen, what else can you do to lessen the amount of strain/damage the screen does to your eyes? Are there any products you can buy especially for this case? (Maybe a screen you can attach onto the monitor to lessen the glare?) Just wondering because I spend quite alot of time in front of the computer.
Well I have no protection against these. I also want to do somthing this because my eye Numer is going high.
I use a Pure Light to reduce eye strain with its full spectrum light and to counter the effect of radiation/positive ions with its negative ion generator.
Does anyone actually take the recommended 15 minute break every 2 hours? I got my eyes tested a few months ago and apparently I am now slightly short sighted.
Thanks for that link. Seems very interesting. I'm liking the abundance of features: Price seems fair, but they don't ship to Australia
I think you should have the screen bright enough, a good resolution not one of those crappy old monitors that flickers, & enough light in the room you are working in
You can get Full Spectrum bulbs without the ion generator and Negative Ion generators without the bulb. Neither should cost a fortune. This one just cleverly combines the two but you will get the same effect with two separate devices.

This helped me when I had a problem a while back Breaks every 15 minutes help too (all you need to do is take a few seconds off to focus on something else besides your monitor!)
use a glass filter, am planning to get one, but then why don't you try the lcd screens, lcd is great for the eyes! CRT is not good for eyes
