A few days ago I listened to this episode of fxguide podcast:
fxpodcast #312: Take Care of Your Eyes
I think this topic is very important especially for us colorists. Our eyes are essential for our work, we should keep them in good shape.
On the linked website they published these advises:
Additionally I noted these things during the podcast:
- avoid too much airflow (AC, Ventilators, etc.) because it might dry out your eyes too fast
- working on a projector is probalby less fatiguing for the eyes than working on a monitor that is much closer. The accommodation muscles in the eye are in a more relaxed position, when you are focussing on something between 6m and infinity. Personally I made a similar experience. I always felt that working long shifts on a display, that is quite close is more fatiguing than working on a big screen, that is meters away.
What is your opinion on that, and how do you approach the topic of eye health?
