eye strain :(

By Ed Lea

Last night I got into one of those trances while creating some new work. I sat in front of my monitor and for about 3 hours I did not look away once. I had my iPod plugged in, phones off and drifted into a world of my own.

It's nice when you get the chance, but after, I had what felt like an eye hang-over! Does anyone have tips avoiding getting caught up in this? I considered setting an alarm on my mac that went of every 15 minutes to remind me to look away.

Anyway, you can see the piece I have been working on here, not quite finished yet

Hi Edlea,
know what you mean, getting caught up for hours on the computer. No eye strain complaints, but it gets me in the neck, shoulders and arms. I purchased a digital timer and try to set it whenever I sit down at the comp. It works well, forces me to take breaks regularly. However, I had to train myself NOT to ignore it! Otherwise there isn't much point is there? Anyway it helps. :)
