Position your computer so that the monitor and keyboard are directly in
front of you as you work. Special shelves are commercially available to help
you correctly position your keyboard.
To reduce the risk of eye strain and neck/arm/back/shoulder pain from
using the monitor for long periods of time, we suggest you to:
1.
Set the distance of the screen between 20 to 28 in. (50 - 70 cm) from
your eyes.
2.
Blink frequently to moisten your eyes or wet your eyes with water after
prolonged usage of the monitor.
3.
Take regular and frequent breaks for 20 minutes every two hours.
4.
Look away from your monitor and gaze at a distant object at 20 feet
away for at least 20 seconds during the breaks.
5.
Perform stretches to relieve tension in the neck, arm, back, and shoulders
during the breaks.
Make sure that the monitor screen is at eye level or slightly lower when you
are sitting in front of the monitor.
Adjust the tilt of the monitor, its contrast, and brightness settings.
Adjust the ambient lighting around you (such as overhead lights, desk
lamps, and the curtains or blinds on nearby windows) to minimize
reflections and glare on the monitor screen.
Use a chair that provides good lower-back support.
Keep your forearms horizontal with your wrists in a neutral, comfortable
position while using the keyboard or mouse.
