Can online dating do people only good or is it sometimes harmful? (Part three)
This the last part of the article devoted to the online dating and problems connected with the way computers affect our life. Some people are used to work at computer all day long and don't believe any more that their computer can do them a lot of harm. Really, scientifically it has not been proved yet. So, we can be sure that computer is our enemy. On the other hand, can we be sure that it is our friend? Computers do help people. They get people a chance to get acquainted with other people from all over the world and learn certain advantages of this way of dating in comparison with real relationships. They can do a great number of other things on the Internet as well. In such a way, the main advantage of the computer is the comfort and the number of possibilities it gives us. But we should not forget that computers can sometimes be bad for our health.
Except those kinds of negative influence of the computer on our body which we discussed in the previous articles, we can say that it is our vision that suffers most of all from it. The thing is that our eyes are not prepared for perception of luminous computer picture at all. There also exists the so-called Computer Vision Syndrome. This syndrome is very dangerous for those who regularly spend more than six hours sitting at the computer. But it is not inevitable and you will be able to avoid it if you care for you eyes and know elementary rules for work at computer (not to sit closely to the monitor, not to work at computer in the darkness etc). And in general, if you work (or maybe rest) at a computer you should remember about your eyes and do special exercises for strengthening your eye muscles every day. That will not only relax your eyes but also that will keep your eyesight safe.
