Exercise your hands, wrists and arms to improve
circulation.
Work habits
The key to avoiding discomfort or injury from strain is to
vary your activities. If possible, schedule a variety of tasks
into your working day. Finding ways to break up the routine
can reduce stress and improve your efficiency.
Take frequent, short breaks to change position, stretch
your muscles, and relieve your eyes. A break of two or
three minutes every half hour is more effective than a
long break after several hours.
Avoid performing repetitive activities for long periods.
Intersperse such activities with other tasks.
Focusing your eyes on your computer screen for long
periods can cause eyestrain. Look away from the
computer frequently and focus your eyes on a distant
object for at least 30 seconds.
Your LCD display has a brightness approaching that of a TV
device. We recommend that you adjust the brightness of your
LCD to a comfortable level to prevent possible strain on your
eyes.
