about
my name's rebecca. i doubt you're even mildly interested in the irrelevant aspects of my life, so i'll get to the point. i'm not a professional psychologist nor do i pretend to be, yet i'll try to give you advice based on the common sense that, unlike many others on here, i own ;]
advice
Is playing a video game for a few hours bad for your eyesight? Or watching television for a few hours or playing on the computer? I think it is but how much damage does it do to your eye?
-Worried
If you're constantly on the computer, especially sitting really close to it, your eyesight will be affected. Same thing with the TV. It won't blind you or anything, it just causes mild shortsightedness.
Spending a few hours playing a video game won't have any long term effects. But if you spend hours playing video games every single day, then yeah, maybe.
