I've been in front of my laptop so much lately, about 2 weeks straight everyday. Now I notice my eyes are so teary and it's like my vision is kind of blurry. I usually sleep so late too, about 12 midnight to 3am. I just keep on surfing the net or watch movie (that's because I can't sleep, not sure If I have insomnia but usually I feel sleepy around 3am) and then sleep sooner or later. Now I'm worried not only with my eyes but with my health too. _

You should be worried, and I think it's high time you go have your eyes checked on by an eye doctor. Maybe you would like to invest in a screen filter or something if you are always in font f the computer for long hours, or protective eye glasses, perhaps?

LOL haha XD if I do that my mom would really get worried. And I might get scolded later on resulting to a computer usage restriction or worst no use at all! _

Hello Neil!
I'm not sure if you should worry or not. You probably need to rest some more. Usually when you don't sleep enough and when you read a lot your eyes get tired. Then you experience the things you mmentioned above. Try to sleep a bit more. If you're still experiencing the same problems then I would suggest you to see a doctor. Good luck!

I've been experiencing this for a day now so it's making me worry. I will try your advice and maybe at least stay away from monitor for one day and sleep much too. That also means no mylot for a day. _

Being in front of the computer monitor for a prolonged period of time could really affect our eyes. At the least, they will get tired, teary and reddish at times. And if we continue this, our eyesight might suffer as well. We should make an effort to rest our eyes once in a while when we're using the computer. As for the lack of sleep, that would affect our health.

Yes, and I keep on blinking too I don't know why, maybe that's the effect of teary eyes. I should really stay away from monitor somehow, and I really find it hard to sleep at night. Even if I sleep early, I will just keep on rolling on my bed and then sooner I'll find out that it's already 3 am. _
