To the extent it is compatible with your work, try light colored
text on a dark background.  It's much easier on the eyes.

Part 1:  If you know you have problem (glaucoma) in your eye, you
        should get advice/treatment from your trusted eye doctor,
        not the internet.
Part 2:  The Monitor maybe part of the problem, try the following
        and see any help:
        1 - Try a 17" (fair to good quality) LCD Monitor.
        2 - Try adjust/change the Fonts, Text Size, and
            Color to make your eye feels better.

Hope this helps.

i thank you

my oculist says that there isn't any connection between the use of PC and
glaucoma;but  it' also true that a new Japanese resarch confirms that if a
person is short sighted as i am,and he or she uses the P.c for a long time
(8-9 ours everyday), the risk of glaucoma increases.....and so what should
happened   to my eyes????

Better yet, if you have a really long URL to post, go to
http://www.tinyurl.com to make it an URL that people can actually use!

Searching the newsgroup can be a real PITA!

I read the news report of that study.  There was
no distinction made between CRT monitors and
LCD screens.  IMO the study suggest that a CRT
screen is not so good for your eyes as it would seem
likely the majority of the subjects were using CRT screens.
