Summary: Guidelines for monitor placement and lighting

* Eye-to-screen distance: at least 25", preferably more.

* Vertical location: viewing area of the monitor between 15° and 50° below horizontal eye level.

* Monitor tilt: top of the monitor slightly farther from the eyes than the bottom of monitor

* Lighting: ceiling suspended, indirect lighting. Use blinds and shades to control outside light.

* Screen colors: dark letters on a light background.
