Q. I have a dual monitor setup and lately, I've noticed that my left eye always itch. My main screen (the one infront of me) is a LCD screen, and my secondary screen is a CRT (which is located to the left of my main monitor)..
Do you think theres a connection between them?
I'm thinking there is, because my CRT screen is always on, and my eyes are not really focused on that screen...
Maybe if i have 3 screen and the one in the middle is my main screen, I wouldnt have this problem because the lighting (of the monitor is balanced)... I dont know.. help me out here... o.O

A. CVS, or computer vision syndrome is a growing problem, even with the best monitors. It could be what is causing your strain. If you can, get a pair of computer glasses with an anitreflective coating, and possibly a mild yellow tint, as yellow seems to help reduce the strain caused by this. That is what I put my patients in when they need computer help.
Computer monitor eye strain?
Q. Background: I have a problem with the muscles in my eyes. An eye will wander if the muscles get fatigued. I do eye pushups to help this condition. I get eye strain when using a computer. It's not the typical eye strain that people talk about and is not cured by taking breaks, blinking, adjusting brightness and glare, etc. It's caused by barely perceived "flicker" on the screen.
My 23" LCD monitor has a default "refresh" setting of 60hz. At this setting I can barely look at the screen because I can "see" flicker (but others don't see it). I reset my refresh to 75hz and this helps, but I still get fatigue quickly. The way my computer works is that at the highest screen resolution setting (1680x1050) the refresh can only be set to 60hz. I currently have it at 1152x854 @75hz This is the highest setting I can get for the better refresh but this is not ideal because everything is stretched horizontally.
Here's my question: :
I'm looking for either more optimal computer/monitor settings to alleviate the eye strain, or a suggestion for a better monitor that allows the highest refresh AND resolution setting to allow comfortable use of the computer. Has anyone with a similar eye muscle problem found a solution?

A. You need as high a refresh rate as you can get. Also get a monitor which is reasonably large but doesn't get you to move your eyes too much which a very large monitor will. Personally I think 23 inches could be too large but it depends a bit on how you are using it. Get anytihng off your monitor which moves on a regular basis as that tires the muscles.
I do get this with teh muscles of one eye if they get tired and the optician has put a prism in my glasses which helps relieve it, but I don't know if its the same thing you have. You're right that the typical eye strain isn't cured by this , however as a muscle thing taking breaks does help as it gives teh muscles chance to recover. i use a weighted bag for yoga relaxation over my eyes as well in breaks as I find it helps ease out the muscles.
