Disable email notifications and check your email on a defined schedule. It is one of the quickest ways to improve your productivity. (I do it when I wake up in the morning and when I go to sleep -- this tends to minimize wait times for customers in America.)

Also, doing customer support before going to sleep serves as a wonderful soporific :)
Shining a light in your eyes (the basis of many a type of screen) isn't, though. It can muck with your circadian rhythm (that is the basis of bright light therapy). There are some timer programs that automate turning down screen brightness in the evening..
