We daily watch television. Some people watch for a few times, and some watch for more time. If we see it to sitting nearby the T.V. then it is harmful for our eyes? Do you think so. Then how much distance we keep to see it.

NOt too much, in my opinion. I spend much time in front of the CRT monitor every day, about four to five hours on average every day. I have been playing computer for daily work and stuff and entertainment for about ten years. My eyesight keeps the same with several years ago though I never have a rest for my eyes. But I have to admit different person may get different influence from TV radiation.

Watching television by sitting closer to the screen of tv is really harmful to your eyes .It irritates your eyes and even make it reddish or will result in some other serious problems.It may also result in head ache.But watching tv from perfect distance doesnt harm your eyes and also to protect your eyes you should never watch tv continuously for hours and hours.

Yes it is indeed harmful for our eyes to be totally exposed to television especially for longer period of time. This would be because of the radiation emitted by televisions. That is why I don't watch that much tv the whole day.

Well Punmsharma, everything in this world have its own advantages and disadvantages.Answering to the discussion, watching television will be harmful if your tv brand is very poor,if you use a tv for more than 15 years picture tube gets spoiled,also if you watch tv very nearer, it will be very harmful. But nowadays as the technology advances LCDs, Plasma are available which are less harmful than the one that was available in olden days. I hope you will get cleared. Thanks for posting Happy mylotting
