Yeah, so how far away do you sit from your computer screen when you're on the computer?

I sit usually 16-17 inches (yeah, i measured) from my monitor. And sometimes when I don't notice it I'm like literally 6 inches away, but I can't help it. I'm just.. really blind. I have to go like 6-7 inches away without my glasses.

Okay. How about you?

I'd say.. 20 inches since it's on the floor right now.. but when it's on a desk, like a foot- 15 in.

I lean back in my chair alll the time, so I'm usually about 24 inches away. If I'm reading something and I'm into it, I'm about 10 inches away.

Sometimes I sit really close to the screen, but I usually sit about a foot to two feet away from the monitor. That is just an estimate, however.

When I'm reading something from the screen, I sit about 15 inches away from the screen (I'm using a laptop). But if I'm relaxing, it's about 30 inches.
