When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect (反射) on the screen. If the windows are in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.
Your hands and wrists (手腕)

1. Rest your wrists on something.
2. Keep your elbows at the same height as the keyboard.
3. Stop some times and exercise your hands* wrists and fingers in a different way.
