Put down the mouse and step away from the keyboard. Get some sleep. After a while they go away. It is like carpel tunnel. It comes with the job man.

The race for quality has no finish line- so technically, it's more like a death march.

Another "solution" to correcting red eyes is to have kids. They might give you pink eye.

I think this thread need to be followed up by "I'm getting worried about my ***" You know sitting in a chair all day is not real good for you either.

That is a major bummer. IMO, they made the best aperature grille monitors in their model's price ranges. When I upgraded my Vivitron to a NEC/MITSUBISHI, the difference was striking.
