Posted at 23:40, 22/04/2008 by LauraWilliams

Ever notice how words on your computer monitor start to look like the last line of a medical eye exam by the end of the day? Even if you wear prescription eye glasses—or the cheapo ones they sell at the pharmacy—you still may find yourself a victim of computer vision syndrome. QuickOnlineTips

has the remedy:

Turn on ClearType in Microsoft Windows XP

This will improve the font display quality and readability on color LCD displays with a digital interface, such as those in laptops and high-quality flat panel displays. Readability on CRT monitors can also be improved.

Increase your Monitor Refresh Rate

See what is the optimal refresh rate for your monitor and reduce flicker induced eyestrain and headache.
