Wanted to stay long in front of my laptop but my eyes can't,ouch! :(

Hi amiga... I have also the same problem... when i use computer for a long time, my eyes get pained and have to suffer from same for a long time. from last couple of days i am too busy with my research work and have to sit in front of computer for the whole day in a press, hence i get pain, again after returning home, i wish to check mylot but my eyes never permit me, hence have to take rest. Well amiga, hope everything will be fine........ take care. Oh, how are crystal?

Yeah you should try resting your eyes for a bit. This has happened to me before and what worked was I would go and wash my face, sit away from the computer for a few minutes and just wind down. Go back on the computer and tadaa the problem has gone. So if you want my 2 cents just wash your face and stay away from the computer for like 10 or 20 mins, it will be worth it.

I can spend 16 to 18hours in front of computer in a day. Last sunday i have spent from morning 1am to night 11.30pm continuously. I have taken just two hours rest in between. I can do spend in from of computer for a long time. But it is not good to our health. Nobody should not do like that. I have such experience.

Hello, my dear! How are you now? I hope you're feeling much better. I experience the same thing sometimes. What I do is rest my eyes and shut down my PC. It's very difficult to say no to the internet. It seems to be calling me from my bed. So I totally shut it down and just reboot when I'm ready to fight! Cheers my friend!

hello MTR, Uhhhmmm....I stayed for more than 8 hours in front of pc but lucky I don't feel that Just don't wash your face after using pc let your eyes rest for awhile See you soon happy mylotting

Yes, eye strain is common when your work or activities entails you to be exposed in the computer screen for long hours. I suggest you use anti-glare glasses while your on the computer. Use LCD flat scree monitors or laptop screens as they have lower chances to strain your eyes. Also, regular resting in between usage of the computer will help tremendously your eyes. The eye limits is really a hindrance in myLotting eh? Haha!

Well the glare from the computer screen can be hard on people from time to time to where it is harder to do things. It would be nice if we could have a choice of a color besides a white background when wanting to respond back in myLot. Often have wondered why they have never given us a choice? But I can relate as from time to time my eyes have bothered me or itched and it can be quite frustrating.

Well, I guess that when you feel something like this, its time to rest your eyes a while. There are always limits to what our body can do. Even machines will overheat and constantly abusing our body might lead to damage or injury. I do not stay much online since I have a day job and I do mylot just for fun.. So when I fell like its causing strain already.. then I do rest and relax.

For me yes it is happened if you have that one in your life take a break and after all it gave you more strength it is better if you drink herbal medicine for your eyes.

I have experienced this. I work online for 8 hours sometimes my eyes don't feel the stress but there are also times that I can feel that it already needs rest. I think you should better see an ophthalmologist to see what he/she can do to help your eyes not to hurt much from doing online stuff. And try to rest everytime it feels pain. *Sorry for the late response.

Hi my sweet friend. Awwh you are far friend old my friend. LOL this happens to many of us long time computer users and yes it is adviseable not to be on for too long as straining and dryness will occur from viewing the screen way too long. I don't usually stare for long periods as I can type without looking at the screen and so I do try to keep my eyes every now and again. But yes this happens and that means time to get off. It will certainly cause vision problems in the long run. It is called Computer Vision Syndrome and happens to all long time computer users. Proper seating and enough spacing between the screen and eyes is important. Here is a quick article I searched and has some great tips: (This is not a referral link) http://www.ec-pop.org/how-to-prevent-yourself-from-computer-vision-syndrome.htm Take a few breaks and play with your darling angel and that will also help too. lol

Hi mtrguanlao: We wanted to be online in order to gain bigger but we also have to consider our eyes. We need to rest our eyes to avoid eyes strain when we're are facing the computer screen. Even how much we wanted to work and work here our eyes really deserve some rest. Maybe you can continue reading articles and other stuff online but you have to set your time and make sure that your eyes get rest after each hour in order to prevent it from being stress. 15 minutes rest will do after each hour. You can close your eyes to relax it or maybe stay away from the computer for couple of minutes

hi, because the eyes will be the first affected when we stay for long in the front of our computer,because the radiation of it,usually eyes constrain we feel because of it.so that when i stay for long in the front of it i will just close my eyes for a minutes so that it will take a rest shortly.

sometimes i experience this.i will use a glasses to help myself see better and when i am tired,i will see other things not the computer,like green trees and other green things.i hope that will help you.

My husband will sympathize, since he sat on his computer glasses today, and broke them. I told him not to put them in his pocket. He's going to need to take them to our optometrist, and see if she can make him a better prescription, or atleast copy that one, so he can use his computer again. Won't be using it all weekend, since they're not open. Oh well, we'll be at the Turkish Festival all day tomorrow, so there will be no time to play infront of a computer.

Hi sis! I have also the same problem. I am only staying for an hour in front of the computer or else my eyes really gets sleepy or my head aches. You are true, it's maybe a sign of aging .

If your eays goes weak then you would care about that.. do not stay long at one time relief your eyes by closing after every half an hour for 5mins that reduce the side effect of laptop screen.. use fruits which is good for eye sight and consult to doctor about it.
