The following are some other tips for comfortable viewing of your monitor:
•
Use adequate lighting for the type of work you are performing.
•
Use the monitor brightness, contrast controls, if equipped to optimize the image on your
screen to meet your visual preferences.
•
Keep your monitor screen clean so you can focus on the screen's contents.
Any concentrated and sustained visual activity can be tiring for your eyes. Be sure to
periodically look away from your monitor screen and focus on a far object to allow your eye
muscles to relax. If you have questions on eye fatigue or visual discomfort, consult a vision
care specialist for advice.
Quick tips for healthy work habits
The following information is a summary of some important factors to consider to help you
remain comfortable and productive while you use your computer.
•
Good posture starts with equipment setup: The layout of your work area and the setup
of your computer equipment have a large effect on your posture while using your
computer. Be sure to optimize the position and orientation of your equipment by following
the tips outlined in
comfortable and productive posture. Also, be sure to use the adjustment capabilities of
your computer components and office furniture to best suit your preferences now and as
your preferences change over time.
•
Minor changes in posture can help avoid discomfort: The longer you sit and work with
your computer, the more important it is to observe your working posture. Avoid assuming
any one posture for an extended period of time. Periodically make minor modifications in
your posture to help deter any discomforts that might arise. Make use of any adjustments
that your office furniture or equipment provide to accommodate changes in posture.
•
Short, periodic breaks help ensure healthy computing: Because computing is primarily
a static activity, it is particularly important to take short breaks from your work.
Periodically, stand up from your work area, stretch, walk for a drink of water, or otherwise
take a short break from using your computer. A short break from work gives your body a
welcome change in posture and helps to ensure you remain comfortable and productive
while you do work.
