Anti-Glare Computer Screen

[novastorm]

had a request from a member of staff for Anti-Glare Computer Screen as they keep getting headaches

 

any one recommend any thing decent for this?

There are plenty of companies that sell clip-on Anti-glare filters for monitors. That might do the job.

 

Also worth looking into low blue light monitors. Blue-light can be a cause of head-aches, fatigue, sleep problems and if one study is to be believed it makes you eat more as well! Interesting stuff. I was given the heads up by my optician.

Occupational health should be able to give you the recommended products it's not really for you to go out and find them something.

Have they had a workstation review? My understanding was that modern displays didn't need those old anti-glare covers as they were built in. The issue could be if someone is setup directly next to window without blinds, doesn't have a properly adjusted screen or is directly under a bright fluorescent fixture.

 

Of course, being mean, they could just be moaning for something to moan about.

 

EDIT: Of course there is the possibility they need an eye test or not taking required breaks. I find I pick up a headache if I am engrossed in something for long periods and forget to take a break and blink less.
