| Tip 3: Position the
monitor at a comfortable eye level. This should be about 2" to 3"
below the top of the monitor casing. If you wear bifocals or progressive lens make sure that you sit back in your chair to view the screen. If necessary, you may need to position the screen slightly lower than is shown above and tilt this slightly upwards so that you can easily read the screen. NOTE: Repositioning the screen is much easier with an LCD monitor, especially when this is put on an adjustable arm. |
