I have a very nice, very large, old style screen, but I think my eyes
are getting hurt by the glare.

It didnt happen overnight, I have had this screen for along time, but my
eyes are starting to bother me.

It finally dawned on me that everyone at our office with the old type
monitors have a "glare" protector or a new type of screen.

They told me at the computor store that yes, my old monitor is bad for
your eyes, but they wanted 60 bucks for a screen protector or 300 for a
flat screen.

I settled for a small flat screen from a thrift store for 20 bucks. I
notice its not as bright as the old one.

Before I give the old one to the dollar store, is this really a problem
or Im I just getting older....LOL

LCDs (particularly older ones when the technology wasn't as advanced)
are darker, so no it isn't your eyes deceiving you. But as they do not
use cathode radiation, they're much easier and better on the eyes.
Hope that helps,

When the 21 inch cathode monitor I had had trouble with the red gun it
really hurt my eyes. This 17 inch Dell flatscreen does seem better for
my eyes.

remember when ya were a kid and got yelled at fer sitting to close to
the tv

hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

wonder if there is a connection

I used on Samsung 22in its cool... dont feel like its hurting. I dont
think they do.
