Guest guest Posted July 26, 2002 Report Share Posted July 26, 2002 I generally have minimal occular symptoms. However, everytime I use a computer my eyes burn within 15 to 20 minutes. My opthamologist told me the monitor did not effect occular rosacea itself. My symptoms were only a result of not blinking enough when concentrating on the screen. I intentionally try blinking more without benefit. Has anyone else had this problem with monitors and are there any solutions? I don't believe I flush significantly when using the computer.

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2002 Report Share Posted July 26, 2002 I use a anti-glare filter screen which filters out most of the UV, and that makes a big difference for me. If I don't, I invariably end up with red eyes. Lorraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2002 Report Share Posted July 27, 2002 I was recently diagnosed with rosacea, but I've had it for about two years. I have not yet been examined for ocular rosacea, but I experience the exact same symptoms as you do about 15-20 minutes after sitting at computer. (burning eyes) Please let me know if you find out anything about why this happens. Right now I adjust the brightness on my computer to really dim and that seems to help a little. Good luck & let me know if you hear anything else useful. Rosy together.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
