[CQ-Contest] Contesting/Computer glasses?

[Chuck Gooden]

Get an exact measurement of the distance your computer screens are away 
from your eyes when contesting.  Take this measurement to your eye 
doctor and he can write a prescription for a pair of glasses.  Don't 
guess at the distance.  There are places that grind lenses on site and 
it only takes about an hour.  The grinding is all done by a computer 
controlled system.  Pick out a cheap frame and you should be happy with 
the result.

We are all getting old and an eye exam would be a good idea even if you 
do not need glasses.

The other alternative if to increase the text size on the screen by 
holding down the CTRL key and move the mouse wheel.  Or mount the 
monitor on a moveable arm and bring it closer when contesting.
