Question

How many hours should I sit in front of a PC each day?

Answer 1

The effects of sitting in front a PC monitor for prolonged time frames is pretty drawn out. You can in effect stay in front of one for 24 hours, assuming you take breaks every few hours for at least 10 minutes to give your eyes a rest.



I would reccomend no more than 12 hours per day in front of the monitor. And if you do more, at least take a break every few hours for 10 minutes a time and focus on more 'lit' objects, to give your eyes a rest.



Doctors reccomend no more than 12, and that's a good thing to stick with.
