It may be different for others -- I'm just sharing my experience. It is a great way to train your peripheral vision, though.
Depends on the person, but it also depends on your monitor.Myke B wrote:
It's probably just because I'm not very good at taiko yet
pretty much this is the problem imo. Try using minimalistic/simple skins, they help a lot. One of the examples would be:dinopwn wrote:
Does osu! hurt your eyes? My skin has a lot of elements and special effects.
as for Taiko, skinning is also involved. Using both plain hitcircle and overlay will 'eliminate' the blur existing in the default skin (and maybe some other skins), and making the taiko-bar-right-glow.png (which shows up in Kiai time) into the same as the regular one greatly helps reducing eyestrain.Noobsicle wrote:

"Although eye strain is uncomfortable, there are no long-term consequences of eye strain. There is no evidence that eye strain causes any adverse changes in the eyes. There is also no evidence that, in adults, continuing to do visual tasks while experiencing eye strain will result in any structural damage to the eyes."WindyExplorer wrote:
Osu! bad ? no person not wanting to take a break between games and stuff to blink lol and wants to risk eye health then yea, play and enjoy but remember you need your hands and eyes for alot more then just clicking circles on osu! XD
I've just been using it for about a week, but it feels a lot easier on the eyes. It's worth giving a try.encryptik wrote:

Well that's a relief, thanks for the link.
I did actually notice my long distance vision return to normal after a ~2 month break from pretty much everything computer related.
(I get very horrible long distance sight problems after my computer binges, e.g. playing 14 hours a day for weeks at a time during my time off.)
I'm yet to find a solution for the eye strain I suffer from on a daily basis that usually consists of very dry, red and sore eyes by the end of the day. Did anyone else find f.lux to be helpful?
welcome to this whole section.Zeraph wrote:
this whole thread could've literally been finished in a single post saying "quit playing osu!, or quit using the computer." how fucking dense do you have to be to continue doing something as it's damaging you or affecting you in a negative way.
Of course is a matter of time ><WindyExplorer wrote:
