Cleaning your monitor and eyeglasses
Keep your display screen and your eyeglasses or contact lenses clean. If you use a
glare-reduction filter, clean it according to the manufacturer's directions.
Having your eyes examined
To be sure that your vision is adequately corrected, have your eyes examined
regularly by a vision care specialist. Consider having glasses made that are
specifically suited for working with a computer monitor. If you wear bifocals or
trifocals, you may find these special monofocal glasses more comfortable for
computer use. For more information, see Adjusting monitor height for bifocal and
trifocal users on page 12.
