Okay, I've been on my pc for 7 hours straight and my eyes feel like they look in this picture!! Just wondering, am I the only one that does this to myself?! LOL My eyes are so blurry and feel like they are gonna fall out! Good night everyone, I gotta get off this thing and rest the poor lil things so I can come back tomorrow and do it again!

This happens to me too when I don't get enough sleep. As I wake up and go to work, I can feel the pain in my eyes for the first two hours while working at the computer. When this happens I just drink plenty of water and rest my eyes looking outside the window for at least 5 minutes. A good view from outside the office makes my eyes relaxed somehow. -)

i agree with you aeisle, that to relaxed our too little eyes is to view a nice scenery from afar. i also gone to experienced, due to my working straight hours infront of a computer, my eyes were so tired that even when im sleeping my brain still working. its like you have nOt slept for a night. :(

Yes, I also get to the point where I can't read anymore as my eyes ache. At that point I know it's time to get off. This is a special problem at night as the light is not so great. During the day it's not as bad. In fact I won't be able to stay much longer tonight.

according to my optalomologist. 5 hours straight using the computer is too much. it would really make your eyesight poor.relax your eye every after 1 hour. look at green colors coz it will refresh your eye.

Hehe poor you... I know how that is, too. I guess the internet (and/or using the computer in general) is just that addicting :P It's good to take some breaks once in a while though, so your eyes don't get all tired (I should really follow my own advice here). Good night, and have a good rest! :)
