Webmasters.. How do you save your Eyes?

We spend so much time on the internet making money, websites, and etc. Sometime we are on more than 12hrs straight.

So share some tips of how you save your eyes from getting damaged.

I am sure, your tips will be helpful to many of the webmasters here.

Thanks.

 

take a break?

 

Lots of carrots, take breaks every hour or so, massage and 13 hours of sleep lol xD

 

I always take a break after an hour or two.

 

Watching less of Baywatch and Buffy is a good start.

 

I went to an eye specialist

he said:

Take 20 second breaks ever 10 min and look at something a distance 20 feet or more

Get a computer screen that has automatic brightness controls that adjusts when exposed to the light in the room

Place screen farther away and dont be soo close just like when your mother told you not to stay to close to the TV.
its either that or get glasses

 

Good suggestions so far

My eyes are already ruined! I think they get worse every six months.

 

Thats sad to hear.. Looking forward to more suggestions!

I always wear glasses but that don't seem to be very effective.

 

I dont wear glasses yet, but i guess i will in some time

 

I am sure I will have to get glasses in the future, but as of right now right I am lucky.

That nice...

 

I take a 15 minute break for every hour I sit infront of the computer.

 

Lasik Eye Surgery. I'd like to get it done sooner or later. It's getting pretty cheap. I figure I'll wait a few more years, to see where technology takes it.

 

Simple Answer - I don't
