Eyes are getting tired after playing for a while.

It's so strange, I don't mean that my eyes are tired because I play too much, they just get tired after playing for 30mins and then I'm having trouble with seeing the notes in time because everything's so blurry. I've already tried cold water or a break where I stand up and move around to get my blood cyrulated but nothing helps.

It's possible your monitor is too bright, try turning down the brightness. I hate watching youtube without a color reversal add on to make it black, as the bright light hurts my eyes. Perhaps your problem is similar?

Maybe you need some sleep?

maybe you need a crt 8-) my eyes never get tired on my crt

it might have something to do with lighting, having no direct light on the screen and having the screen be brighter than other stuff

That's like playing with a flashlight shining in your eyes.

it doesn't look that bright...when you look at it everyday. when i toggled it down it could barely see something

edit: will update tomorrow with results

Just wondering, are you wearing contacts? If you wear contacts, they will naturally fog up and irritate your eyes when playing games like Osu. If you aren't wearing contacts, then your monitor is probably too bright.

Staring at 100% brightness everyday for long periods of time ruined your eyes. It's that simple.

You should try f.lux.
"...it makes the color of your computer's display adapt to the time of day", so playing is not as straining for your eyes.

If you configure it properly you'll never realize it's even on - I strongly recommend it.
