    Hi, Are there any tips to improve the eyesight, since good eyesight is essential for a programmer.

      I find avoiding CRTs helps. I always use TFT displays (the bigger the better) instead.

                  I don't see how it's possible to improve it, the eye is an organ which degrades with age, all you could presumably do is slow down the process. A developer doesn't need good eyes any more than an accountant or a plumber does.

                  The muscles used in focussing would probably benefit from relaxation/streches like any other though.

                      Not safe enough for over sensitive people it would seem. :)

                        can you please explain it? How about Yoga for improving or maintaining the eyesight.

                        Everyone needs to see, we don't have a monopoly on that. Yoga ? Help yourself, I wouldn't bother, personally.

                          After something like fifteen years in front of a computer, my eyes are still 20/15... so, fatty foods and beer. ;P

                          ----

                          Yes, but can you blame them for doing so if that's the only legal way they can hire programmers they want at the rate they can afford?

                            And for that alone I have great sorrow. Everyone should have the benefit of a healthy heart.
