Improved Screen Viewing Part 1

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

Staring at a monitor screen for hours on end can be irritating to your eyes causing headaches, fatigue and eye strain. We would like to suggest some helpful tips to make viewing your computer screen a little less of a chore and maybe even help you to be a bit more productive.

A clean screen is easier and more enjoyable to view than a dirty one. Proper cleaning is important, and Photodon offers quality cleaning solutions and microfiber cloths.

Some of the new monitors are overly bright making it hard to view for long periods. Try reducing the screen brightness.

Check the refresh rate of your monitor as it may not be high enough. This will cause a screen flicker which will cause a lot of extra eye strain.

The new flat screen technology helps you head off a lot of problems. With a flat screen, reflection is not as much of a problem, as any light source at extreme angles will reflect away from the viewer. In areas where there are many bright sources of light, a flat screen is a godsend; however a monitor hood will still improve screen image consistency especially in color critical applications.
