I am having very bad headaches when I read or use the computer?

Question

Should I get an eye exam even though I had one ten months ago with 15/2o vision. HELP?!

Answer 1

yes, just go in and explain. your supposed to get one yearly anyways, and thats almost a year. if not, just get non-prescription reading glasses, they'll keep the soreness to a minumum. also, time spent staring at the screen is also a factor, for every hour, take a fifteen minute break to say, get a snack, or washroom break or something. then go back for another hour. that usually helps me out.

Answer 2

i think your either sitting too close or its hard for you to focus on the things.

Answer 3

If your headaches are very bad everytime you look at a computer screen then yes you should.

Answer 4

Just go to the doctor and get a physical. I work on-line and get migraines all the time. Maybe it's bad lighting. Sorry, I wasn't very helpful.

Answer 5

well, you could be sitting too close, you should be at least a meter back. or you could be sitting there for too long.

also, turn the backlight of your screen down, that makes it alot less glarey and easier to look at.

Answer 6

id try it. or turn down the brightness of your screen or lights around the book.. or turn them up..

Answer 7

Yes, you should! You may need glasses.

Answer 8

Get an LCD monitor those old ones are bad for your eyes because of the screen refresh rate is usually low and it is like watching a flicker or looking into a flourescent lite bulb
