Use of document holders can help to prevent neck strain and
reduce eye fatigue from looking up and down or turning your neck between the documents and
computer monitor. Below are some tips to set-up your document holder:
- Choose a document holder that is able to hold both the
weight and size of the documents that you will be working on.
-
Place the holder as close and at about the same distance
from your eyes as the monitor. Avoid placing the holder too high to prevent tilting back
of your head.
-
Place the holder straight in front of your eyes to prevent
any excessive twisting and turning. However, there is no best location to place the
holder, it depends on the task that you are performing. See "Workstation Layout"
for placement of the holder.
-
For people who wear bifocal glasses, it is best to place the
holder at the same distance and directly below your monitor and above your keyboard.
