Look Out! Desk-bound folks may find themselves glued to computer screens day in and day out. Not only is this bad for the muscles and joints below our neck. Our eyes can also be damaged from staring at monitors too long. Keep vision sharp — and ward off headaches — by looking away from the screen every fifteen minutes. Better yet, get up and stretch to give your eyes, brain, and body a chance to recharge. Takeaway: Next time you’re composing e-mails, browsing the internet, or typing up a virtual doc, look off into the distance each time you pause to gather your thoughts. Continue Reading...
Computer screens proving a pain in the eyes? Follow these guidelines to help ease symptoms:
- Have your eyes checked regularly. If you need a new or
changed prescription and don’t have it, using a computer will be difficult,
period.
- Reposition the computer. The screen should be about an arm’s length
away and positioned directly in front of the face, not off to the side. Position
the monitor so its center is four to eight inches below the eyes, which allows
the neck to relax while we read and type.
- Follow guidelines for good posture. It’ll
reduce strain on the back, neck, and
shoulders.
- Ensure proper lighting. Try the visor test to determine
if current lighting is a problem: Look at the monitor and cup the hands over the
eyes, like a baseball cap. If the eyes immediately feel better, then the
lighting should be changed. Experiment with brighter and dimmer lighting, as
well as the angle of the lights, to find what’s most comfortable for the
eyes[7].
- Reduce glare. Installing anti-glare filters on the monitor,
adjusting window shades, and changing the screen’s contrast and brightness can
help reduce glare and
reflections[8].
- Blink frequently. It should prevent dry eyes. If that
doesn’t work, consider lubricating eye drops[9]. Also make sure air vents aren’t blowing on the face
(this can dry out the eyes), and use a humidifier if the room is super dry.
- Take regular work breaks. Stand, stretch, or just look off into the
distance, away from the computer, every 15 minutes or so to give
the eyes a break[10].
- Clean the monitor regularly. Dust can decrease screen
sharpness, making the eyes work harder.
- Try computer glasses. Unlike everyday
eyewear, they’re designed specifically
for looking at computer screens.
- Consider Optometric Vision Therapy. Some computer users
have issues
with eye focusing or coordination that aren’t corrected by
glasses or contacts. Vision therapy consists of doctor-prescribed activities
designed to improve visual functioning (think of it as a workout for the
eyes—though no guarantees as to calorie burn).

Well, the time has finally come for me to fork over for a new computer. I've been nursing this old computer on for ages & as for tonight, the power adapter has completely died. So while I still have a bit of battery life, thought I'd post a very early goodnight & if I'm not online for a little bit, you know why :) Hope you all have a GREAT WEEK!!!

Microsoft Jokes :: #588 By Arsen Vladimirsky from Chicago IL USA. Three men are in a hot-air balloon. Soon, they find themselves lost in a canyon somewhere. One of the three men says, "I have an idea. We can call for help in this canyon and the echo will carry our voices far enough for someone to hear us." So he leans over the basket and yells out, "Helllloooooo! Where are we?" (They hear the echo several times). 15 minutes later, the men in the balloon hear an echoing voice: "Helllloooooo! You're lost!!" One of the men says, "That must be a Microsoft service tech!" Puzzled, one of the other men asks, "Why do you say that?" The man replies: "For three reasons: (1) he took a long time to answer, (2) he was absolutely correct, and (3) his answer was absolutely useless."
