Hi all,

I have a question regarding my eyesight...its pretty bad and i was wondering what i should do to prevent myself from going blind any time soon, im only 16. I am on the computer quite alot, and if anyone has any information todo with preventing your eyesight from getting worse that'd be great. Thanks

For example, what screen resolution should i have? 800x600 or something in the thousaands, lol sorry.

Sorry Cousin,

It might help you, It might not.
It looks a little dumb....see what you think.

Sounds like you need the skills of a medical professional St_Anger. Get thee to the doctor and see what he says.

One good thing to do which has been recommended for some time, is to make sure that periodically you get up from your computer and give your eyes a rest. I generally try to do this about once every two hours, if not more often, for at least 15 minutes.

I'd do this, and I do this often.

When I'm on the computer for long periods of time greater than 1 hour. I usualyl look away as often as I can to rest my eyes. I do this out of habbit.

Like I'll look off to the side while typing, cause as long as you know the keyboard well and you know what your typing, then there is no reason to look at the screen whil typing.

Also before you start a game it would be wise to talk a 5 minute walk to rest your eyes for the game and to go to the bathroom.
