The German Accident Insurance Agency stated that eyes can be protected during office work by following simple tips. The distance between the eyes and the screen should not be less than 50 cm. The agency also mentioned that a light-colored keyboard with dark text should be used, as this positive design helps protect the eyes from strain caused by the transition from dark on the keyboard to light on the screen.
To protect the eyes, it is essential to ensure sufficient daylight reaches the workspace and to avoid glare and harsh lighting, as these negative light factors stress the eyes and lead to feelings of fatigue and exhaustion over time.
Ideally, the screen should be positioned at a 90-degree angle to the window. Regular breaks and blinking from time to time are also important.
