If you wear bifocals, trifocals, or progressive addition lenses, do not position your monitor so high that
you have to tilt your head back to view the screen.
Eliminating glare and reflections on your monitor
Take the time to eliminate glare and reflections. To control daylight, use blinds, shades, or drapes, or
try other glare-reducing measures. Use indirect or reduced lighting to avoid bright spots on your display
screen.
If glare is a problem, consider these actions:
●
Move your monitor to a place where glare and bright reflections are eliminated.
●
Turn off or reduce ceiling lights and use task lighting (one or more adjustable lamps) to illuminate
your work.
●
If you cannot control the ceiling lights, try positioning your monitor between rows of lights instead
of directly beneath a row of lights.
●
Attach a glare-reduction filter to your monitor.
●
Place a visor on your monitor. This device may be as simple as a piece of cardboard extending
out over the monitor's top front edge.
●
Avoid tilting or swiveling your display in a way that leads to an uncomfortable head or upper back
posture.
