Computer Screen Glare

adventuresinlowvision's avatarAdventures in Low Vision

 Image description computer screen with inverted contrast activated through zoom text. My eyes and glare go together like students and a substitute teacher. One wrong move and the day isn’t going to go well.  Some days the ocular classroom is relatively calm. Some days roll call isn’t complete and I’ve lost control. 

To manage light sensitivity I rely on things like hats, sunnies, and adjustable window shades. I’m happy to try something new, every incremental bit of saved eye strain equals less cumulative eye fatigue. Recently, I found a new way to reduce light sensitivity at work.

On my workstation, I use ZoomText for universal magnification.  Over the years, the other options haven’t made much of a difference to me. For contrast, I use the Chrome browser High Contrast add-on for internet pages. I don’t use  the Microsoft contrast setting because some of the programs I use for my job ignore the altered settings.
