I work in financial services and also look at spreadsheets, MI reports, lots of figures.
I CTRL + quite often to zoom in on spreadsheets etc which helps, and am wearing RGPS now for 2.5 years.
They do dry out my eyes and i get the odd bad eye day, try and wear just glasses on my days off and plenty of lubrication to soothe my eyes, but the long days in RGPS staring at a screen do take their toll.
Some tips given by my optom
Take breaks and look at far to the distance rather than close up , making sure you make a full blink.
Increase humidity (was told to put a bowl of water by my desk, not sure how well that would go down, goldfish at work anyone?!) Maybe a portable desk humidifier could be cleared with facilities.
Eye drop your eyes if wearing RPS, then put eye drops in the RGPs, then onto your eye. The liquid layer is what causes you to well so your vision should be better with a nice thick liquid layer.
Mine isn't as advanced as some of you and i'm 26 so maybe I have more to come, hopefully not though!
Hope some of these help
