1 Give your eyes something attractive to rest on.
Sit in front of your computer with your hands on the keyboard and look away from the monitor, sweeping 90 degrees (or as much as you can survey comfortably without craning your neck). - The Canadian Centre for Occupational Health & Safety recommends looking away from the computer screen every few minutes and focusing your eyes on more distant objects to help combat eye strain and fatigue. - But is there anything attractive in your range of vision? Not? Add something worth looking at to your office design, such as a painting, print or poster that you like. - If space allows and the conditions are right, a living blooming plant can work wonders for space? Thus, put up a small corkboard and use it to pin up things that make you happy, such as photos of family and friends, drawings by your children, or even a colorful calendar.
2 Give your revamped office desk the reach test.
Sit at your new and improved desk and work. - Is everything you need within easy reach? You may adjust your office design as necessary, moving the items or equipment you need the most into easy reach. - You should not have to get up and leave your desk to staple something, for example. Take note of what you don’t use, too. If you don’t use it much, organize your office rule is that it should be stored further away.
