Anyone deal with eye discomfort from using a computer all day?
I have tried everything - drops, new glasses with coated lenses, not wearing my glasses, having the lights off, even brought in a halogen lamp so I wouldn't need the overhead fluorescents.

It's terrible, my eyes are almost purplish!

1. Thats not everything
not even close to all the options for computer vision syndrome, none of those things are gonna help, the halogen lamp will make it worse

But there are things that do help. Go see an eye doctor that knows about computer vision syndrome and does not just sell you glasses
