- monitor set to lowest possible brightness
- blue light filter always on, on all devices with screens
- ambient contrast lighting. either buy a $5 table lamp and direct it to the wall at the back of your screen, or go crazy with expensive RGB. both work
- k-n-m rule. People say 20-20-20. but any number works, really. regularly stare away from the screen at a distance at regular interval
- use glasses with blue light filtering using ARC
- good sleep also matters
I do all these myself, and never get eye-strain, not even after intense sessions of 14 hours.
