A student has been to see me as he's experiencing problems when using
computers. After 40 mins or so of looking at a monitor, he feels dizzy,
nauseous and shakes. His GP has suggested that it may be due to recurrent
Malaria (which he first contracted in 1991). Has anyone had any experience
of anything like this?
When I asked about using an anti-glare/radiation protection screen, he said
it didn't really help. He says his GP has confirmed that it is the
flickering that is causing the problem.
In that case, do you think that it would be helpful for him to try some of
the monitors recommended for people with epilepsy? I remember some
discussion about the best ones, but please could anyone advise me, as I
have no experience of these.
Many thanks
Esther
