My eyes are officially sticking to the computer right now email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc3 months ago

I know that some people sit in front of the computer for quite long hours, some just eat in front of the computer and turn it off when they're about to sleep. Ever experienced your eyes getting sore and blurry as you sit in front of the computer long enough? that's what I'm feeling right now. And what I hate most about using the computer that it makes my eyes drowsy! demmit. Any suggestions? I know you're not supposed to wash your face and those who don't know never ever do that after or when you've been using the computer. Anyway back to my question. I f anyone knows how to make the eyes less sore please let me know.:)

Well I can relate to you. I also don't know how to lessen it. Right now I'm also in front of the computer, mylotting while eating.=) I always experience getting my eyes blurry because of the long hours in front of the computer. Most of the time I feel sleepy. Just last night I never noticed that I already take a nap while mylotting. I woke up at around 1am because my head feels so hot. I found out that I haven't turn off the laptop and I slept on it that's why my head feels so hot. Good thing I didn't burn my hair. LOL

lol:)) I feel that my eyes are soo dry it begins to sore right now. And yeah I do eat in front of the computer too although my mom gets angry haha! Often times when I;ve been experiencing the blurry eyes and all I always get tempted to wash my face! And often I wash my face because of being tempted. lol. what a bummer. I think this is why bumps in my eyes begin to grow. It's really not a good sight.


myLot reputation of 95/100. LdeL0318 (509)   ranked 2 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Too bad.=) Try to put some eye drops. Maybe it will help lessen the dryness. We are both eating in front of the computer. I wonder how will we look like days from now if we continue doing this. lol=)


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Yes I can imagine that too lol! Unfortunately, I don't have any eye drops available here at home right now.:( And here I am in front of the computer eating again. lol:)) And my eyes are puffy and all. And really heavy too!

I'm on a computer almost all day & I even sleep near it NEVER turning it off except to clear the memory. When my eyes get sore (dry & scratchy) I use Artificial Tears & it soothes my eyes. Our eyes dry out from staring into the light of the monitor. I usually only use the eye drops once a day. That seems to help all day long!!! I don't buy the expensive name brand product opting to buy the cheaper generic form. You might want to try it. If it doesn't work, you won't have to continue using it. The generic version only costs about $3.00 so it's not that expensive.


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Okay:) So that's why our eyes get dry all the time. It looks like it has been dehydrated and all! lol. I wear contacts too, so it adds up to soreness. what a bummer.

My eyes get dry, too. I find that I have to make a conscious effort to blink, otherwise I often end up just staring at the screen, no blinking. I suggest taking breaks every once in while, lol!


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Sometimes, I tend to not blink too! Sometimes I feel that my eyes are going to break out. lol

hi resssaaa again I share that with you.right now my eyes feel'itdchy and tired, Ithink part of that is allergy to dust and dust mites,'but too I think the monitor after awhile does make our eyes tire, maybe'from the constant looking at a more or less glary screen.my eyes are also feeling blurry because I think my monitor and my chair are not correctly aligned, making eye strain a constant given. Also for me I do need tohave new glasses as my eyes have changed over the past three or four years. Someone has suggested that you take time out every few hours so as to rest your eyes, and look off into other parts of the room,then come back to the computer again.


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Yes I have to agree when my eyes get blurry so much I tend to rest for a while and look at other parts of the room. This helps my vision go back to the normal way. My eyesight is also changing now and it's not the normal 20/20 vision. I wear contacts, and believe me you must be really conscious about them. YOu cannot sleep with them on cause your eyes will become irritated. You can't leave them for a long time on too cause it will get sore plus your heads going to hurt BIGTIME.

If I didn't wear glasses, my eyes would go blind. I think it's more it seems my butt is falling off, from sitting too long in front of it. Plus, I am careful not to get too close to the computer screen.


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

I have to admit my butt hurts too! and my back seems it needs its bones to be stretched. My back aches all the time and I usually get cramps when I sit long hours aside from my eyes. Boy computer has many side effects!

Not only does this happen to me but I also get back pains because the chair I use is a little higher than the table with my laptop.
If you are so interested in using the machine as we both seem to be try leaving it for periods of time.
So, that way, you can rest your eyes and I can rest my back.
That's what I do.


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

You said exactly what I;ve been feeling. I have back aches too and right now I have back aches already. I try leaving the pc once in a while to rest my eyes and back but sometimes I end up sleepin cause I feel drowsy once I've been in front of the computer/

question: what is bad if you wash your face with water after a lot of myLotting?

Don't worry about the eyes. They will adapt. A friend of mine his hands shakes if he is off the computer.


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Your eyes are tired. That's why you are not supposed to wash it. Ever felt of coming home from school or work and your feet are just so tired then you begin to wash it? After that you feel it hurts inside. Or when you wash your hands after writing like a paper or something you feel your hands begin to shake uncontrollable. Same as what happens to the eyes. Your eyes are tired and when washed it could result to the blurring of eye vision.


mattivdw (64)   ranked 9 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

thx for the tip
I'll remember this

You could knead some poits around your eyes.After sitting a long time before computer,you should go out for a walk and see some green things like trees.That may make you feel fine.Just try to do it!


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

what are poits? My mom says green is a color soothing to the eyes, so I have to agree with you on that one! Good suggestion! Although I often use the computer at night time.

Hey Resssaaa, you better take good care of those lovely eyes. We know it's so hard to walk away from our PC but if we do so take the necessary precautions. Make sure its properly lit, lamp at the back of our eyes, don't ever let the monitor as the only light source and gaze away from it from time to time and look for cool colored picture or something. I never thought it could happen to me and I took it for granted now I'm wearing spectacles. Its so hard to have a set of failing eyes.


myLot reputation of 98/100. resssaaa (156)   ranked 1 out of 17 in pc  3 months ago

Actually my eyes are begin to failing already but not that high in vision. I only have 50/50 vision and it's bearable although sometimes I have to admit it is hard to see when you are far away from the white board lol. I wear contacts, since I don't like wearing glasses but contacts could irritate your eyes if you don't use it properly though.
