Chapter 2 Adjusting and using your monitor This section will give you information on adjusting and using your monitor. Comfort and accessibility Good ergonomic practice is important to get the most from your personal computer and to avoid discomfort. Arrange your workplace and the equipment you use to suit your individual needs and the kind of work that you perform. In addition, use healthy work habits to maximize your performance and comfort while using your computer.
Health Administration Prolong exposure to computer screens may cause temporary visual fatigue. Factors including working environment, working habit and posture, screen flicker and blue light contribute to this condition. To minimize visual fatigue certain adjustments can be made on the work stations or using suitable computer screens with features that alleviate eye strain. Environment Visual fatigue is affected by the working environment.
Exercises for the eye: 1. Alternate looking up and looking down while keeping the body and head upright. 2. Slowly roll your eyes to look to the left and right. 3. Roll eyes to look at objects on the upper right corner and then on lower right. Do same thing to look at objects on the upper left and lower left. Exercises for the neck: 1. Relax arm at the side. Bend head forward to slightly stretch the neck. Hold for 5 seconds. 2. Relax arm at the side. Turn head to the right. Hold for 5 seconds.
Viewing Angle Neck fatigue and pain may result from prolong turning of the head to see objects on the monitor screen. To minimize this, position the monitor directly in front so the head, neck and torso face forward to the screen. It is recommended that monitor should not be more than 35 degrees to the right or left of the head. Monitors should also not be placed too high or too low as this contributes to awkward posture which results to muscle fatigue.
