I spend 18 hours a day in front of my screen and I also wear glasses…

I tend to try and break up long stints by going for walks every hour… well every 50 minutes 🙂

Thats how I get through the day 😀

Awesome tips!
I’m a part time blogger besides a student. I always use protective glasses to protect my eyes against radiation from the desktop.

In reply to Lori. My daughter told me about a download that adjusts the brightness on your screen as the light in the room increases/decreases and I downloaded it and it has done wonders! I have an online business so am in front of the computer 10-12 hrs a day so definitely needed something! I can't remember the name of it but it is free and I am sure if you do a search you will find it. Thanks for the other tips! We keep our shades drawn as there are windows all around from West to South.

Though I am not really a content writer but I often experience eye strain because of prolonged internet use. Thanks for your tips though.

In reply to Sharon Hurley Hall. Linda Au (comment above) agrees with you Sharon. I'll take your (plural) advice when I buy a Kindle soon.

Good tips, John. I’ve worn glasses seemingly forever. I find e-ink easier to read than paper or a regular screen, so I love my Kindle (especially the ability to notch that print up a size).
