Making Beats digitally and eyesight

[KingMIG]

I wasn't really sure which category this fit in so I Put it in this one but,

I spend a lot of time on the computer making beats and other things and it really messed up my eyesight. Now am trying to be more cautious with my eye sight.
How do people who spend a lot of time on the computer, like producers, keep their eye sight healthy?

Most computers hurt eyes in the dark because of their screens mainly lcd.Some newer ones come with a different type of screen that doesnt strain the eyes as much as the other ones.As long as you avoid long periods of extended "in the dark time with bright monitor in face" you'll be fine.

eye checkups, testing and prescriptions for working with monitors all help

second always make sure that you have a back-light source (light from over your shoulder) so that you are getting light in the room other than what your monitors produce - if that ends up causing glare then a down-light solution above the monitors may work, or use a desk-lamp in front of you to provide additional light in your workspace

I almost always do any computer work in a well lit room, pretty rare in fact not to.
