Health issues due to falling asleep in a computer chair several nights in a row? is it due to the monitor?

No: Most likely fatigue of mind and eye produces a sleepy state. Taking breaks and occasional distractions are helpful to insure that repetitive movement and eye focusing do not overtire your concentration ability or produce fatigue.
