What can I do to stop dizziness aquired from my computer monitor?

I get dizzy while looking at my work computer screen, but not when doing other stuff or looking at my laptop screens or someone else's computer screen.





Anyone know what I can do to stop this from happening so that I can still work on my computer? I'm looking for options other than trying to replace the monitor.

More than likely your refresh rate is set incorrectly for your particular monitor. (This is measured in Hertz (Hz) and is the rate at which your monitor displays it's picture.)





Depending on your resolution settings and type of monitor, there are suggested settings by the manufacturer you need to apply.





Even if the screen and text look clear, if the refresh rate is set incorrectly, it can cause a flickering of the monitor screen... often times at such a high rate that you can't visually detect any difference.





However... your brain and eyes actually do. This leads to dizziness, nausea, and eye weakness.





I'd either contact your desktop support people where you work, or find out who manufactures your particular monitor and model, and check to see how to adjust the settings properly.





Good luck.
Reply:maybe the settings isn't right. and don't stay too long in the computer. of course, rest your eyes too.
Reply:Get stoned first or do meth just make sure you dont get caught.
Reply:you should take time to rest your eyes from your work computer because I sometimes get dizzy from working on school projects but not while I'm playing games. You don't have to stop for long, just 5 minutes every half hour to an hour should help.
Reply:Why dont you fight fire with fire. Simply move your chair in the middle of the room and have someone spin you in your chair over and over again until you are really really dizzy. Then the new dizzyness will counter affect the dizzyness you get from your monitor. LOL
Reply:Turn down the brightness and up the contrast. You might also want to sit a little further away from the screen so you have peripheral of your surroundings.
