Tilting the Monitor

Tilt the monitor so that it faces your eyes. In general, the monitor screen and your face should be parallel to each other. To check for correct monitor tilt, have someone hold a small mirror in the center of the viewing area. When sitting in your normal work posture, you should be able to see your eyes in the mirror.

AVOID!

Eye Height

Your eye height will change considerably whether you use a reclining or upright posture, or some posture in between. Remember to adjust your monitor’s height and tilt each time your eye height changes as you move through your comfort zone.

If you look at the monitor more than you look at paper documents, avoid placing your monitor to the side.

Adjusting Monitor Height for Bifocal and Trifocal Users

If you wear bifocals or trifocals, it’s especially important to properly adjust your monitor height. Avoid tilting your head back to view the screen through the lower portion of your glasses; this could lead to muscle fatigue in your neck and back. Instead, try lowering your monitor. You may want to consider using monofocal glasses that are specially made for computer use.

WRONG!

If you wear bifocals or trifocals, don't position your monitor so high that you have to tilt your head back to view the screen.

Notebook Viewing

Whenever using a notebook computer for long periods, you may find it more comfortable to connect a full-size monitor. A separate monitor gives you a wider

* range of viewing distance and height options.

Adjusting Brightness and Contrast

Reduce the potential for eye discomfort by using brightness and contrast controls on your monitor to improve the quality of text and graphics.
