Oliver Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) Hey Since I have a new monitor I am sitting much longer infront of it and I noticed that I am getting a headache from it. Whats the % of your brightness setting? I also wear glasses for driving ( I see on the short very good but I have problems seeing in the distance) Do you think I should wear glasses if I am on the computer? Please only answer the glasses question if you have experience with it. Thank you Edited January 16, 2016 by Oliver

Sky Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Whats your contrast ratio, monitor size and how far back is the monitor on your desk and how lit is the environment around your computer
Kalispel Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Having some low lit lights and not staring at it in the dark helps me out.
Attaboy Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 I have -4,50 and the only reason I'm getting headaches is when I sit for to long behind my PC. I would say, go outside more often
Oliver Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 Whats your contrast ratio, monitor size and how far back is the monitor on your desk and how lit is the environment around your computer Size: 24" Resolution: Full HD Contrast: 75 Brightness: 50 Sharpness: 60 The normal roomlight is on ( not too bright but not too dark ) I am sitting around 30-40 cm away from my monitor
Sky Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 And you're getting headaches with this? Size: 24" Resolution: Full HD Contrast: 75 Brightness: 50 Sharpness: 60 The normal roomlight is on ( not too bright but not too dark ) I am sitting around 30-40 cm away from my monitor
Oliver Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 And you're getting headaches with this? yes
Oliver Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 does sunlight enter your field of vision I only get a headache at night and also only if I am sitting for a long period of time infront of the monitor, not instant!
Sky Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 I only get a headache at night and also only if I am sitting for a long period of time infront of the monitor, not instant! oh well that's normal. Unless you might need a brighter bulb or if it's exposed you need something to block direct vision 1
Russ Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) Turn up the No Blue light if you have a Benq monitor it helps tons my eyes feel much better now and my eyes don't feel tired anymore too. I think there are also programs that you can download for low blue light for your monitor. https://justgetflux.com/ is one of them. Edited January 17, 2016 by Russ 1

Please only answer the glasses question if you have experience with it. Thank you I always wear glasses BUT when I'm behind my computer because I get headaches after a while. Im sensitive to brightness overall though, whether irl or computer. So I use dark themes everywhere (computer, websites, ...) which does wonders to my eyes. Also always leave a light on in the room to ease your eyes
