Eye problems with monitors

Just thought I would share this with you. I have been using monitors for about 15 years now and have had headaches and eye problems for around the same amount of time. I've been to the doctors and the optomitrist and have ended up wearing glasses. About 6 months ago I got a laptop instead of a usual desktop machine for work. The headaches improved so I also got a TFT for home, since then no headaches at all!  

The moral of this story, is if you are suffering get yourself a TFT or a laptop, as (for me at least) it was the CRT's which were causing the damage.

Yeah, I saw that improvement too when I bought my first TFT monitor. BTW check this thread too, there are a few more tips for eye problems with computers

yep most of the screens used on laptops are very bad...

Most persons are unaware of the dangers that surrond using the computer full time without much breaks. I have been using a screen on my computer but sometimes I want to see things  a little clearer I remove it.

What is a TFT? I use 2 flat panel LCD's, been using them for years now and I'm ok no headaches but my eyes to tend to hurt after long hours.

yeah ive experience eye problems a  lot hope I can get eye protection soon

well, on that other thread Nik pointed, I mentioned myself as being hit with the old overuse of the eyes, now im using prescription glasses when I use my Computer, or just watching TV...

In that case ,I think I need to get one for myself

Yeah, my eyes always red color and sometimes they are watering and can't do nothing with it.

Well I have developed eye dryness problem from using computer too much. It's coz I blink too less .
