How to improve your WFH lighting to reduce eye strain

Russel Baylis shares this helpful article about their learnings regarding improving the working environment to reduce eye strain.

I work from home everyday, I am susceptible to eye strain, eye pain, and dizziness. Having a working environment that’s as easy on my eyes as possible is of critical importance. I'd like to share what I've learned over the years in hopes that it can be helpful to you if you work from home, and like many, have experienced WFH eye strain.
  1. An even, diffused lighting environment is best for the eyes
  2. When it comes to light brightness, too much is just as problematic as too little
  3. Use natural light wherever possible
  4. Quality of artificial light matters
  5. The best lighting for camera, is not necessarily the best lighting for ergonomics
  6. Even the perfect lighting environment will fatigue you — take breaks, and take care of yourself
