well...
Actually problem is the Light.
There are two kinds of light.
1: Light by light ( heh heh sounds like stupid...heh heh :D ) : it has less problem with eyes when we play games long time ( LCD and DLP, Plasma use light anyway)
2: Light by electronics ( CRT uses electronic guns, and shoot electronics, electronics hit the Shadow-Mask, Bam ! then there some lights apears ) This Electro-light is really bad for our eyes, That's what I wanted to say to you.
Game is game, money is money...sometimes we don't have them, but oneday we can have them.
But your eyes, health...once its gone bad, never came back. I know what you saying, but If you could do, get some time to make some more money for better(for your eyes) display. If you can't, please good care of your eyes when you watch CRT (distance, filter, making brighter your room....those gonna help your eyes little bit more)
thanks, yea i donyt want to end up blind haha
Not quite. CRT and plasma produce light by exciting phosphor (don't know where that "electro-light" came from). CRTs use an electron gun (which BTW, hitting the shadow mask DOESN'T make light) and plasma uses electrically charged gas.
The problem of eyes getting tired according to what I've read from medical reports is that your eyes are trying to focus on something that isn't there (the glow of the CRT/plasma) as a solid, but it is just light. That is the reason why LCD screens are better on your eyes, as they are crystals blocking light and your eyes can focus on them (being solid). If you work with PCs all day you can easily compare a CRT screen and a LCD. You don't feel so tired when you are staring at a LCD screen all day :D
Good one, but I was saying about physical-damage by light for eyes, you talked about tire-rate of eyes.CRT and plasma have totally different light systems. as you said, shadow mask can't make light itself, then what kind of light do you see when you watch crt? I talked about 2 kinds light, but as we knew, theres more, like natural ones ( sunlight, anylights from something burn...), electric bulbs( different lights and effects from different filaments(nikel,chroms...) and charged gas), CRT, Laser, even X-ray...every light have different spectrums, even some are visible-ray, some are not. long term base physical damage to our eyes is totally different from every lights, but sure thing is close ones to natural lights is good for eyes and health, thats why all electric bulb campanies are trying to make more natural-like light today. laser, crt light,x ray...thesekinda by electronics special effects or conflict...its visible and invisible rays could give us more worse effects when we see them or hit by them.
That's the other issue :D Yes, CRTs put out X-rays, so it is wise to sit away from them. The spectrum of the light doesn't affect your sight, just your mood :wink:
