Use tinted windows or shades to reduce glare. ❖ Avoid placing your computer in front of a bright light that shines directly into your eyes. ❖ If possible, use soft, indirect lighting in your computer work area. Your LCD display has a brightness approaching that of a TV device. We recommend that you adjust the brightness of your LCD to a comfortable level to prevent possible strain on your eyes.
