I experimented and if I don't play it goes away. Now obviously this is no good and it may just be old age, but before going to doctor (not easy) I wondered if anyone else suffers and if they had a solution, I wear glasses for long vision, but not for computer.

I too suffer from long sightedness, i wear spectacles for reading and playing games on my PC, 4 years ago when i had my eyes tested i also asked them to also test them for spectacles for my PC, since then i wear one pair for reading and one pair for playing on my PC and yes sometimes i suffer from the same condition you have especially in my right eye, it's because even with PC spectacles i still stare at this bloody screen for too long, it's up to you if you want to see a Doctor about it m8 but i think it is just eye strain from too much gaming, i was fine up until about 5 years ago when i got a bad case of conjunctivitis, my right eye closed completely for about 4 days and my left eye was pretty bad too but at least i could still see out of it, since then i have had more problems with my right eye, sometimes when i doze off and then try to open my eyes it feels like my right eye is going to pop out of it's socket and i have to physically open it with my fingers lol.

Mordblacks suggestion sounds good might try that. I suffer with conjunctivitus too SOB, it is of interest that Roman soldiers stationed on the wall, who had never previously suffered, are documented as having bad conjunctivitus. So it may be a regional thing that we can't escape? It's a pain in the arse. MordBlack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need regular breaks and something to stop the harmful blue light from screens, especially in the evening and the day - there is a program you can get for your PC called f.lux which you can use to filter out the UV lights and is great for your eyes. You can set what time the screen should start filtering out the harmful shit and what not. RobMc and Sonovabich 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

So it may be a regional thing that we can't escape? It's a pain in the arse. I had never suffered from it in my life up until that point m8, i had no idea how contagious it was, in fact i had no idea it was contagious at all, from leaving my house to go to the Doctors (about a 10/15 minute journey) my right eye had closed completely, looked like i had been in a fight, my Doctor never told me it was contagious and just prescribed some drops, as it is with my bad luck i had a hospital appointment 2 days later to get a camera rammed up my arsehole and it was only then i found out it was contagious....think it had something to do with them isolating me in a room on my own and everyone one else running away screaming lol, i had to go home with no camera up my bumhole....damn it, had to wait a couple of weeks until the conjunctivitis had completely gone until had the pleasure...ooerr Missus, i did do some research because of this and discovered that some forms of conjuctivitis can affect your eyes for years afterwards...and i think that's what has happened to me, i always wash my hands now if i have been to a shop and have handled money and keep my hands away from my face too, i also keep some of that gel stuff in the car that Nurses use on their hands in hospitals to keep all the nasty's away too.

Now that old age has set in, have to juggle glasses for my limited focal range. Can't seem to game for more than 45 minutes without having to step outside and gaze at the horizon. Work doesn't help, constantly checking color charts, work orders, and statements. Paying for all those years welding and torching.....ah, bugger it, we aren't built to last forever, and it's still fun to stick a knife in Ricko.

Problem with UV filter on prescription glasses is that the coating will start to wear off after a year or 2. My 3 year old glasses had a UV filter on them and I had to take them in and have it polished off. Didn't bother having them re-coated. You can get filtered non prescription ANTI BLUE LIGHT UV clear glasses specifically made for using with a Computer off of Amazon for around $20 shipped. There are a bunch of different style frames. https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dhpc&field-keywords=ANTI+BLUE+LIGHT+UV If you want to go balls to the wall there are also Anti Blue light filter Screen protectors that will fit any Computer monitor or Laptop or Tablet PC. They are pretty expensive but they do a great job. I got Mom one for the Nook HD+ 9 inch that I got her for her Birthday last year. She reads alot and it was giving her a bit of a head ache. She can read for hours now with the filtered screen protector installed and it doesn't bug her eyes at all now. https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dcomputers&field-keywords=Anti+Blue+Light+Filter&rh=n%3A541966%2Ck%3AAnti+Blue+Light+Filter Edited May 5, 2018 by J3st3rXI RobMc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to wait 5 hours to be seen which is average and it turns out I have scleritis and uveitis, they have given me steroid eye drops which I'm not happy about. However (and I suspected this) I have to limit my exposure time to computer screens, regardless of filters, just my luck when I'd planned to return to cod2 this weekend, wait for me boys. Morale of the story is don't ignore eye pain, get it checked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
