Which one is better for eyes? LCD or CTR???

[Asad83]

I have been using my Desktop since one year and I am still using it. It has CTR monitor and my eyes are burning after sticking in front of my computer for for than an hour. Then, I can hardly open my eyes fully. So, I shifted my work to my Laptop which has LCD screen. I can feel a little better. But, its feeling dizzy thing which I scroll something.

So, is LCD screen really better than CTR or its just the feeling?

even i think lcd is better ...

I'd have to go with LCD just because the clarity is much more clear and your eyes are not straining as much to see fonts etc etc.

Plus the images look more clear etc etc.

CRT's hurt my eyes LCD are nice and you can look for longer

One of the main reasons for sore eyes when working for long periods on a computer screen is lack of blinking. In normal looking around throughout the day, the eyes blink an enormous number of times and this acts a wiper removing dust and other particular deposits.

When concentrating on a screen in what is a fixed stare, the eyes hardly blink at all in comparison resulting in a lack of wiping. The thing to do is sit back every 10 or 15 minutes and do eye blinking exercises to introduce sufficient wiping to stop the eyes from getting this problem.

Major votes go to the LCD and me too use LCD.

It does not hurt eyes as compared to CRT.

Now THAT explains a lot. At home I have a 42" Plasma, a 42" LCD in the living rooms, a 22" LCD elswwhere in the house, & 19" lcd in the kitchen, I never have diziness issues,

BUT! Everytime i go out to watch rugby up the club, they have a CRT tv, so THAT MUST be the reason I am comiong home all dizzy

Does that one wash with Mrs OWG?

About as much as the 'it must have been something I ate' one does on a Sunday morning.

She knows now that from the first Saturday in September, RST kicks in (rugby saving time) it means that Sundays start at around noonas that is the earliest i will drive after a Saturday of rugby

wow ... which make? I wish I had one

 

[Asad83]

Thanks for your opinions, mates! Now, I kept my desktop a side and I am using my Laptop. I feel a lot better. But, still its not 100% over. So, What about Plasma. Lets compare Plasma with LCD. Which is better?

 

[Cryxellis]

I have tried using both but my vote goes to LCD. I like wide screen

 

[OldWelshGuy]

Better image quality on my plasma. (Phillips), the LCD is LG still really good image on that, but not quite as sharp.

 

[eronkid]

I go for LCD, not only on viewing but also for energy consumption. It's best!

You know what, the other day I brought a 42" inch LCD from Asda. I just wanted something cheap for my daughters bedroom for her to watch cartoons on and it's better than mine in my living room!!

Gutted.

LCD, also make sure eyes are at level with top of screen. Like mentioned before take more breaks.
