See an optometrist first to see if you need glasses or glasses changedophthalmologist
It is isn't it? It's quite debilitating especially if you have to work long hours and it triggers such nasty headaches.@trapped_soul I understand how you feel. It's awful!
Excellent, thanks for that. Will have a look and see what more I can do combined with the monitor settings.FYI, Windows 10 now has the ability to change the colour temperature based on time of day, so additional software isn't required.

Good tip thank you, I drink far too much coffee and not enough water, which may help.As a medical doctor, dehydration reduce tear production leading to eye strain/dry eye. To relieve eye strain, use lubricant eye drops and drink plenty of water each two to three hours. Make sure you use good lighting and sit at a proper distance from the screen. Good luck.
That's very important information. You have no problems on some other monitors. Why is that so? Exactly. That is something I want to get to. I want to find a monitor that does not hurt my eyes so bad like my currently new one LED LCD with "FlickerFreeEcoSmartAutoSuperDupperEtc"... hm, those commercial tags... Why should I use extra software or amber tinted glasses (which I also own...!) so see XenForo looking buhhhh??? I know monitors can be great with real colors and no eye-strain. Got one at home, but it's kinda old and too small.But an other monitor helps also. With some i have no problem without glasses and f.lux
Yes, just found those options a few days before. Thank you.FYI, Windows 10 now has the ability to change the colour temperature based on time of day, so additional software isn't required.
Don't worry, I have waterfall in my throat. I really drink a lot of water. I trying to take into account all of these.As a medical doctor, dehydration reduce tear production leading to eye strain/dry eye. To relieve eye strain, use lubricant eye drops and drink plenty of water each two to three hours. Make sure you use good lighting and sit at a proper distance from the screen. Good luck.
Great! No, not for your eye burning problems, but for I looks like there are more of us. I hope someone find a solution, so, a pleasant screen to look at. I'll try to post any new info I get on this topic.Great thread. Glad I'm not the only one. My eyes burn like hell after a few hours online.
that suggest you need to see an optometrist and have your eyes checked if you haven't alreadyyes, maybe I need glasses too.
My wife sees like an eagle as well but she suffers the same as you when she is in front of a monitor. I'd say eye strain isn't particularly caused due to lack of glasses.@eva2000 yes, maybe I'll go see him. Actually I've had some general medical examination because of my work (need to go to examination every three years) and they say I see like an eagle. It wasn't an optometrist, but I guess it was good enough when I looked at those machines.
Unbelivable, I went to a computer store today... A few monitors were powered on, looking at their screens and my eyes started to hurt. And I was good for a few hours again...
Anyway, like I've said already, the problem is to find a good seller that knows what is he selling. A guy, which was obiously boring and I quite annoyed him, told me that all monitors are LED, I asked if they are all edge lit, he say I guess, expensive ones aren't, sorry, I will need to look the specs.... Well, he didn't look for it...
So I'm stuck again. Just send an email to another store that promotes counseling for monitors etc. I hope they've ever heard for eye-strain, flickering, LED, edge lit etc.
