2 Minute Computer Breaks

For every 15 minutes of screen time, turn away and stare into the distance to prevent eyestrain, which can lead to irritated eyes, headaches, and low productivity. :roll:

I definitely don't follow this rule! But I really don't get headaches. Do you think prolonged computer starring can cause your eyes to not have as good vision? My distance vision used to be perfect, but 5 years ago everything in the distance got blurry for me. Now I need contacts or glasses to be able to see sharp objects in the distance.

That's a good question, and I don't know the answer. The next time you go to your eye doctor, you should ask about that.
