Check the refresh rate of the screen
also take a break...away from comp.

I spent 11 hours staring at my works PC screen yesterday without any break.

When i left the office and stepped into the street, it felt kinda wierd, i was disorientated and dizzy. It was warm, yet raining, the air smelt like it had a fresh "taste".. strange sensation.

I presume its because id spent all day couped up in my office box in front of the screen looking at numbers.

Not good. :?

I work in computers too. You really really should take a break. Not only does it put massive strain on your eyes, it tires your brain and can effect your concentration with other things.

Im pretty bad for it, but make sure i try to get away for a few minutes evey couple of hours (at worst). Cup of tea, go to the loo, go for a quick walk round the building, anything.

You really should take some breaks fella :) Or you will feel like :compcrash: at the end of the day.

No, it was because you smoke like a chimney and you've forgotten how good fresh air can be :wink:

Used to happen occassionally (blurry eyes) in work. I just insisted they get me a big monitor that I could run at the same resolution. They did, problem solved.
