computer damages eyesight- therefore..

How about:
Get a projector (computer LCD) -- for 250quid second hand.  1024x720pixels 300inch area

Number 2: Stop using glasses... I believe my eyesight is getting progressively better... especially when you are young- your body can recover.
And interestingly- why not your mind. Don't glasses have a psychological effect... like medication? I've heard such things said.. that is a conspiracy theory.

think lcd is the problem...
I see blue/green/red/white fuzz at night because of the damage to eyesight.

What about monotone projector, something not harsh. something projecting here.

got it... reduce the contrast... have grey and black not white and black

Is it better to use a lower resolution also?...even if the picture is washed out on lcd.. easier on the eyes... less stark definition

walking barefooted
I also think walking barefoot when you can, is good for strenghtening muscles in feet.. preventing injury. you can buy shoes with thin soles.

Whoa, there. Slow down. Focus. You seem to have started in the middle of the conversation.

What sort of eyesight damage? I stare at screens all the time, but my vision is excellent.

1,024x720 seems sort of low-res.

Monotone? WHAT!? Society as a whole is so over that.

1,024x720 is lower than 1,280x720, which is lower than 1,280x1,024, the minimum that I would ever run my desktop at.

640x480 is low-res, but does anyone make monitors at that resolution anymore?

Toto, you seem to be a bit disoriented. Are you perhaps not in Kansas anymore?

My orientation is excellent.
In fact I have better internal navigation than most people- anyone.
true my thinking is a bit fuzzy...theres a lot of guessing going on...but my general direction is very strong.

I am still on the yellow brick road.

Trust me, years of looking at CGA and EGA monitors definitely ruined my eyesight. Yeah, when you're young, it's easy, but time does take it's toll. Maybe it won't be so bad for younger folks.

computer screen user for 24 years....need cane and dog...;)

Uh no, 100x100 is a thumbnail. Way back when, people used 640x480 and were fine with it...nowadays, everyone is so technologically spoiled.

LCDs are less tiring for eyes that cathodic screens, and in a few years everyone will get OLEDs screen. So I guess it won't be too bad...
