How can I improve my workspace ergonomics and lighting?

To enhance your workspace ergonomics, ensure your chair supports your lower back, and your monitor is at eye level. For lighting, use natural light when possible and consider adjustable desk lamps.

What specific chair and desk height should I aim for?

Your chair height should allow your feet to rest flat on the floor, with your knees at a 90-degree angle. The desk height should be at or slightly below elbow level when seated.

Are there any specific lighting types that are better for reducing eye strain?

Yes, using LED lights with a color temperature around 4000K can reduce eye strain. Additionally, consider using task lighting to focus on your work area.

How often should I take breaks to maintain good ergonomics?

It's recommended to take a 5-10 minute break every hour. Stand up, stretch, and move around to keep your body relaxed and prevent strain.
