but my eyes have been really bothering me lately, more then usual. Feels like somebody rubbed them with 400-grit sandpaper, and the burn/fatigue doesn't seem to be going away this time

hmmmm...sounds vaguely familiar--wear glasses?--late 30's to 40 something age group?--fatique doesn't seem to go away?--had an eye exam recently?--reading glasses?

A new monitor sounds great!--but it may not solve this problem :-X ;D

(The board title does say 'Lethal' :D )

No I don't wear glasses, or contacts. My vision is good. Altho it's getting harder to see small print up close At a distance, I can see anything well.

Whe I was 16, I once had a drewam that I had to wear glasses .. uh, a NIGHTMARE. Vanity.

Yeah, probably due to the aging thing, sad to say. But I really think it's simply a case of overuse and fatigue.

The LCD might not help, but it can't hurt, either.

I think I'll rest my case--consider the eye exam--and if indicated, the reading glasses--it can really help with the irritated eyes and the fatigue--it's probably eye strain symptoms.

You sound exactly like Sharon.

She's been trying to get me to go for an eye exam. I told her I just need some time in the mountains.

I sent you a Google invite a month or two ago. Did you ever get it? I think the email came back. Is your registered email here still valid?

Oh, oh--not too sure it's a good thing to 'sound exactly like Sharon' :) , but you're right, too--we all need more time in the mountains.

Actually, you sent me an email and asked if I was interested in getting a gmail offer, but I said I wasn't desparate--so, you offerred it to someone else.

Yes, my registered email address is still valid.

That's right. I remember now.

No, not "exactly" like Sharon. :)

I think you are getting excellent advice from good sources, take it. It's just like computer problems, you have to eliminate things to find the problem. IMO
