Can i get vision impairment from too much computer time on my laptop?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Work away without worry. You can develop eye strain or what's called "computer vision syndrome" but this is a temporary condition. Use proper lighting, specs and computer monitors and have a great day!
