Hello, I have an issue I am trying to figure out. See, I have been getting very dizzy (inwardly feeling dizzy) Strained eyes, and I am wondering if the computer screen has anything to do with this odd sinsation? The room isn't actually spinning it just feels like it inwardly I get it more when I am attached to the computer screen for hours on end. I do need glasses by the way.

Change the contrast on the monitor screen and go for that eye exam. I spend 36 hours a day (at least it seems like it!) in front of computers, and sometimes have the same feeling. Mention the dizziness to your eye doctor.

You should always look away for a minute or so when working at the computer. I work with computers every single day and I don't wear glasses. The key is to not keep your eyes focused in the same place for a lone period. Get up and walk around every 30 minutes.

I agree that if your eyeglass prescription is outdated or off then that could indeed be the cause of the dizziness.
