Probable Risks
o You tend to lean forward or move backward thus positioning yourself awkwardly to have a better view of the monitor. Ensure that the monitors are neither too close nor too far so as to strain your eyes.
o Viewing distance longer than the normal: When you lean forward to view the monitor better, you are straining your eyes as well as your torso. Your backbone doesn’t get any support that causes severe pain on your shoulders and the back.
o Viewing distance shorter than the normal: There is a tendency to move backward for better focus which in turn causes convergence problem to your eyes. Also you may tend to tilt your head backward or push yourself away from the monitor in which case you may have to outstretch your arms to do the typing. This may cause pain in your arms, fingers, wrist, and elbow.
