I work with terminals for most of the day (8 and up hrs), and after the first few hours, the screen becomes blurred. My eyes have inflamed conjunctiva, and some matter, and are also 'dry' feeling. It also seems that the rooms I am in, which have fluorescent lights, are too bright (I am wearing sun glasses as I post this). Before I get my eyes and/or blood sugar checked, should I look into anti-glare screens? Since I move from one terminal to the next during the day, it would have to be extremely portable, and scratch resistant. tnx muchly, Laurie Sefton pucc-k:afo
