My eyes are killing me. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I am so tired after 8 hours of staring at a computer screen at work. I am glad to come home and come on here and look at the threads and all, but I really want to start with my new Final Draft screenwriting software and type up my assignment, but I am so low on energy. Does anyone else feel drained after looking at computer screen all day and having your eyes hurt?

Oh yeah. Sometimes if I stare at one too long, my eyes will suddenly get blurry. I can see something and then it becomes blurry for a little bit.

dawsongirl · 05-21-2003, 10:51 PM

Yeah. I forget to blink, and damn, my eyes get soooo dry.

-*Leah*- · 05-21-2003, 10:52 PM

Yeah I get like that sometimes...

Tuesday Weld · 05-21-2003, 11:26 PM

Oh meangya I know. If Im on the computer at night for a long time and the room is not fully lit (which its usually not) my eyes get really heavy and I get really tired.

And hey! Cap'N Blair.. get some rest!

Your eyes hurt? I've been working on a art vector for two straight days and it's still not done! I've hardly left my seat in the past two days.

My eyes hurt after I spend about 2 hours on a computer. I think it has something to do with that fact that I wear contacts. I also get like that when watching tv sometimes too.

fr00ti · 05-22-2003, 12:28 AM

OoO that happens to me... I hate it.

You can acquire dark circles quickly from computer eye strain

TJL · 05-22-2003, 03:33 PM

By the way Captain, Final Draft is an awsome program.

*PinkLady* · 05-22-2003, 04:30 PM

I sort of have that problem. My eyes get really tired late at night if I've been watching TV or playing on the computer for a long time. Sometimes I'll actually look at something so long that my eyes cross.
