Few things. He decreased the brightness to 0. Just for the video, as you can see later on he puts back the brightness to an increased value, something like 30-40. The yellow blue block glasses are a mock-up, my fiance is an optometrist, it doesn't matter if you use f lux or w/e. Those yellow tinted glasses are awful and expensive. Not worth it, just marketing catch. The lamp on the top of the monitor will give you reflections, which will lead to eyestrains as well. I think He could have done a much better job, explaining like what value to use for brightness, alternatives and just go into the topic more with better experience. Like panels matter more and why many people are returning nano ips panels which hugely increase eyestrain and headaches. What rgb settings to use? Is better contrast ratio easier on the eyes? So many things we could have talk about. Even just to eat more salty because if someone is working out or it's summer, you will lose tons of salt by sweating. Also drinking more water is needed a lot.
Hi László! I already returned an LG 27GN880-B (nano ips) because i can't find the reason why my eyes are strained while i reading on that. Gaming and watching videos was mostly fine. I tried a lot of settings on it but i had marginal improvements. Can you tell me what was bad with that monitor? I already searched the answer on the internet but can't really find the reason. What type of panel, size, contrast, color and refresh rate is best for our eyes? Best wishes, Attila.
I also face a lot of eye problems as I'm a developer and designer and using the screen for the last 8-10 years. Spending much time on screen. Here is some advice from my side that will help everyone to reduce Eye strain. These tips work for me and I go to many doctors and do a lot of research and find them. 1. Take a break after 20-25 minutes for 30-60 seconds. See you at a long distance. 2. Drink more water. 3. Try to reduce screen time 4. Make a good light environment while using a screen 5. Never use a screen in a dark room or in a low-light environment. 6. Blink your eye Frequently. 7. Use software that will remind you to take a break like Stretchly for Windows. So these will help you a lot. Prayer for me as well 😊
Thank you for this, we're surrounded by screens nowadays. From studying online, to watching tv and browsing our phones, our eyes are so important to care for. I find using the blue light filter on your phone and having anti blue light glasses helps too.
5 Tips: #1 Brightness : Low as per timeOfDay #2 BenQ Screen Bar : Similar to reading Lamp. Useful for working at night. Has temperature and Brightness adjustment. #3 Have a Good Font Style and Right Size : Roboto, Ubuntu, Open Sans, IBM Plex. #4 Have Glasses That Block Blue Light. #5 Enable Dark Mode : White Light and warm temperatures tire the eyes more. MyProTip : Buy a good Monitor with high refresh rate. That is less tiring.
I would recommend any VA panel monitor. Nano IPS strains eyes and gives you migraine, headaches and dizziness. No settings will help you. I had an alienware 2720hfa, returned it because of that. I have got wo asus vg32vqr at the moment (32inch 1440p, 165hz). Highly recommended monitor. The dethroner of the g7, as they call it in reviews. No smearing, no ghosting, no motion blur.
Another tip is if your programming at night make sure to keep the light on. Never code in the dark at night. Preferably use light mode with the lights on to reduce eye strain. Otherwise dark mode with light on is fine but risk of eye strain is higher.
Oh wow. I’m a senior dev and never noticed my brightness was on 95 on my 32 inch curved ultra wide. I’ve been getting serious eye strain and dizziness. Never even thought about the brightness. Thanks!
@@AdrianTwarog yeah! I felt immediate relief after I watched this video, it’s actually something I’ve been struggling with and even went to the doctor for, I must have accidentally changed the setting a month or two ago
For myopic individuals, to reduce eye strain: 1) Invest on natural ambient lighting "full spectrum UV bulbs". Your eyes would thank you for providing quality lighting. 2) Avoid using screens in dark room/poor-lit environment. Night mode, anti-blue light whatever, would still give you astigmatism. 3) Re-adjust your screens before the point of blur horizon. Why stare at your screens at half your arm's length when you can still see clearly if you move back a little? Move your screens or your sitting position away ergonomically until it barely starts to blur. 4) Go touch some grass. Spend 2 hours outside on a sunny day. Get some distance vision. No wonder your eyes keep getting worse, you've never balanced your vision plane. Daily close-up: eye strain, more myopia. Daily distance vision: eyes relaxed, possibility of improved vision? Well, try it yourself.
Night mode hurts your eyesight more then light mode. Its true that night mode strain eyes less, but hurts them more. Especially if you have astigmatism as research proved that night mode makes your lense widen a bit, which in turn worsens your astigmatism. Light mode does the opposite.
Also dont forget to mention dont turn down brightness alot, because it will do more harm than good. you should focus on what is the easiest on your eyes not too dark not too bright. depending on the light level in your room.
Honestly the best tip: "consider investing in glasses or contact lenses designed specifically for computer work. Ask your optometrist about lens coatings and tints that might help too." this reduces the work needed for you to read text, in turn giving rest to your eyes.
Bruh at least think of places where these things are hardly there I recommend using reading mode or eye protection mode in mobiles and remove the blue light from pc using color calibration THIS IS THE BEST TIP
I have really high cylinder about 4.0 and 3.5 would these tips will be still relevant for me I got really bad eye strains I can't wear contacts through I I wear then while I'm out they almost instantly dry up while I'm coding I really love to code and don't want to quit from it any suggestions would be much appreciated.
I think everyone is different, for me, light mode with the blue light filter works better, I used to use dark mode all the time and my eyes would get blurry, they felt tired. Even some studies say that dark mode is not as good as everyone claims it to be.
Yeah. Its true. Human eye is designed better see in white background and black text. It focus well. But while in dark mode and white text, u can see lots of emissive light and which is not good to focus. In dark mode depth of field decrease. Thats why in dark mode everything is tough to find. I reduce my contrast in a certain level in white mode and problem solved.
Windows dark mode, vs code dark mode, intellij dark mode, dark background, google chrome dark mode extension, making all sites dark. And a lamp in the back helps me at night and day.
As per internet search - Blue-light: Natural light in day time has full spectrum of colors including a healthy dose of blue light. At night we have no natural blue light from sun. Blue light appears to have no effect on eye strain. At night time, you want to wear blue-light filtered glasses if you are around blue light heavy light(LED-lights). This helps with your sleep and you wont need artificial melatonin. Either lower your blue light around you or wear blue light filter glasses. Eye strain most likely comes from flickering screen. You may want to invest $100 or more on quality monitor if you are going use monitor for longer time than one time use.
I wish in the future someone could invent something that can allow people to have screen time for so long without causing any eyestrain, headaches and blurred vision
Two Words - Matte Monitors! I can suggest the DELL UltraSharp series. It is not just anti-glare but real anti-reflective! If you wave your hand on the front of the monitor, you Cannot see it! For coding all day long, I love my DELL U2415!
If you use the dark mode you will have to keep that backlight (brightness) to at least 30%. I prefer to lower the backlight of my monitor to 5-10% and switch to an light theme in my code editor.
Every study has shown that darkmode is bad for your eyes. After years of darkmode i started getting blurry vision; had to get glasses and even with glasses I've noticed I have blurry vision when coding. Switched to lightmode and my sight is back to normal. :) There are few great videos on youtube that explain why darkmode is bad for your eyes.
Use window 10's night mode lighting In display setting It makes your screen more reddish by reducing blue light which is the real cause behind eye strain . Texts color also matters
I've found that modern VA panel monitors are FAAAR easier on the eyes than IPS monitor. The new Mini LED AOC is my go to at the moment. (Flat, 2k, 180hz, 27")
I am a 14 year old coder and i started using pc/phones when i was only 3 years old. I wear glasses and already know 4 of these tips (not the glasses for blue light) so i probably need to take more care if really want to code. 1 tip from me: Always take breaks when starring at screen for long time. Also get proper sleep Also would be haopy if you could make a part 2 :) ty and good editing!
You could be affected by pulse width modulation (PWM) dimming. Instead of controlling brightness by changing the voltage level to a lower level (DC dimming), brightness is controlled by switching the backlight on and off for a certain period of time. A brightness level of 50% means 50% of the time light on (at 100% brightness) and 50% light off. Not just does the constant change in brightness tire our eye muscles a lot more than a constant brightness level, but your eyes are exposed to 100% brightness in regurlar intervals. Cheap monitors and OLEDs are especially affected by this. In the case of the former, PWM dimming is easier to implement electronically and requires less components than DC dimming. Look for devices which are confirmed to have DC dimming and 0 Hz PWM frequency. Notebookcheck publishes a big list (PWM Ranking) with monitors, smartphones, laptops and so on that have been examined for PWM dimming.
I can never understand how other devs can code in light mode. Everything from my browser to my ide is in dark mode. Dark reader is an excellent chrome extension for that. Blue light filter glasses are also excellent. Also, at 8pm a blue light filter automatically turns on on every device in the house.
I wish in the future someone could invent something that can allow people to have screen time for so long without causing any eyestrain, headaches and blurred vision
Not so sure about Mac users, but Windows 10 does have the Night mode option available which can be scheduled to automatically kick in at any time you choose or even keep it on throughout the whole day.

Great video thanks. Question pls, does watching a larger lcd 85 inch Tv compared to watching a smaller 65 inch lcd tv damage our eyes more? Thx. * Should i just watch smaller tv screen size to keep better eys?
3:14 here the tips start. But Adrian Twarog's videos ain't full of shit like many Videos. He gives you the answers you may wanna here before the tips. So watch the full video to understand everything clearly.
Hey Adrian, I am somewhat similar to you. I am 12 and I am just sitting on my computer for long hours. I think most kids get shortsighted in this age range only i.e.- 10 to 15 years. My parents noticed this and they said that you have to take a break from computer. I know your channel so I watched this video. Thanks for giving such good tips. BTW my father is a doctor so he is very concerned about my eyes. What do you think Adrian, how many hours should I sit on my Laptop??? I normally sit about 10 hours a day.
well just think about what you are doing on computer. Divide into categories and choose which category is most important and go slowly to the least important one. Try to find some hobby other than computer. You can adopt a cat or a dog to spare time which will also increase your responsibility and mood all day long. As a person who spent 10-12 hours everyday till today ( age 7 to 20) I can clearly say computer games suck if you dont have any friend. They're just addictive. Try to be more social and care about self-development.
Helpful video. Could you please also tell if 60Hz monitors cause eye strain? Some people say high refresh rate like 75Hz - 120Hz are easy on eyes. Does it make 70Hz monitors outdated?
Tips for reducing eye strain 1:better lightning condition 2:Adjustment of brightness 3:use dark mode/night mode 4:Use a better screen 5:Dont keep mobile close to eyes.
Holy crap, hoped around the 2-minute mark he'd actually start talking about the tips, but then the 3- minute mark came and went and he was still talking about himself. So I had to dip out then. Here, have a comment I guess.
One thing I learned is that instead of using those blue-light blockers glasses, I just turn my monitor's or tv's color temperature to the "warmest" option. It's the same thing.
Dark theme is very bad idea. That is exactly why the eyes loose focus. I switched back to light theme everywhere , also on the phone , and the eyes are doing much better now.
Please use a monitor with PPI above 163. Like a 4k monitor at 27 inches. That is the only thing which can heal your eyes. Or use retina display with 288ppi. Thank me later.
I found that working in the dark is extremely stupid. I used to play on PC like that and that's how I destroyed my eyes. now at 33 and Noob in programming, it is tired. Gaming setups on dark is bad guys.
Cool sharing. Any thoughts on this monitor in terms of ease on the eyes? Samsung 32" FHD 75Hz 4ms GTG Curved VA LED FreeSync (LC32R500) Flicker-Free technology and Eye protection mode
I wish in the future someone could invent something that can allow people to have screen time for so long without causing any eyestrain, headaches and blurred vision
can anyone tell me if i am going blind i am 13 and have to wear glasses daily because i spend way too much time on a screen. I have limited my screen time but whenever i watch anything on a screen after that i fell like my eyesight has ruined and i was able to see better before with and without my gasses pls help
great video. what do you think about anit-glare matte screens with high resolution and refresh rate for better eye health? according to some articles they seem to be optimal monitors.
My eyes are actually hurting me while watching “this”.

Goos tips, I do some of them for a long time. Just one thing, I hate direct light, ambient is the best
One thing I learned is that instead of using those blue-light blockers glasses, I just turn my monitor's or tv's color temperature to the "warmest" option. It's the same thing.
Great.. Thanks for this... I really need those tips
What is your take on OLED monitors.
Man, I am minute 3, are you ever going to start taking about these 5 tips??
I will also watch and I'll also show this to my parents so that we get an idea about eye strain in programming
Get a blue light 90% filter clip with your lens (I got a retina detachment surgery before)
Also go with 1080p don’t use 4k monitor ( specifically the Samsung one is a strictly no)
Thanks mate, I’m actually going to try that out!
Dark theme is very bad idea. That is exactly why the eyes loose focus. I switched back to light theme everywhere , also on the phone , and the eyes are doing much better now.
3:15 what u mean by bleeding?😢
Thanks for the tip. They were really helpful 🙂
Glad it was helpful! :)
Please use a monitor with PPI above 163. Like a 4k monitor at 27 inches. That is the only thing which can heal your eyes. Or use retina display with 288ppi. Thank me later.
For websites that still don't have dark mode install Dark reader extension
I found that working in the dark is extremely stupid. I used to play on PC like that and that's how I destroyed my eyes. now at 33 and Noob in programming, it is tired. Gaming setups on dark is bad guys.
Cool sharing. Any thoughts on this monitor in terms of ease on the eyes?
Samsung 32" FHD 75Hz 4ms GTG Curved VA LED FreeSync (LC32R500)
Flicker-Free technology and Eye protection mode
At first seeing the thumbnail I thought you're DanTDM
cant you just remove blue light on the screen instead of wearing glasses?
New video coming that will basically uncover some of these misconceptions
Are yellow glasses the same as using the windows built in night light settings ? 😁😁
Link to the glasses?

qq How you easily switched Reddit and Twitter to dark mode? Is it a monitor setting?
Watching this, how do you get those virtual devices? That would really help me as a developer.
I wish in the future someone could invent something that can allow people to have screen time for so long without causing any eyestrain, headaches and blurred vision
can anyone tell me if i am going blind i am 13 and have to wear glasses daily because i spend way too much time on a screen.
I have limited my screen time but whenever i watch anything on a screen after that i fell like my eyesight has ruined and i was able to see better before with and without my gasses pls help
It's best to reduce computer time gives eyes time to recover . It's what I am doing . My eyes got sickk
1:37, yeah, your diet, retinol deficiency. You also look like you could use some sun and maybe sungaze at sunset.
great video.
what do you think about anit-glare matte screens with high resolution and refresh rate for better eye health?
according to some articles they seem to be optimal monitors.
Surprised PWM flicker is not even mentioned here.
I thought you were DanTDM in the thumbnail
Check out my next NEW video about trying an eye strain monitor!

Don't use your computer in the dark yo. That's the worst thing for your eyes.
I have a -7 eyesight at the age of 18. What about you?
You mean Open Sans. No Open Sounds font 😂 helpful tips btw.
Yeah lol
I like your voice and your videos but the first 3:00 wasn't necessary, thx
All good, that’s why timestamps ;) I’m trying to improve my story telling and the only way to do this is with practice :)
