Maybe that's because when you need a 40" monitor to use eBay your eyesight's already as bad as it's going to get...
Joking aside I've questioned this with my optician as well as I spend a ridiculous amount of time in front of a PC screen each week. I was told that focusing on something that close for a long can cause strains in the muscles that control eye movement, but that it wasn't a serious/permanent problem. The fact that it's a screen you're focusing on is irrelevant: it's the proximity that causes the issue. The way to avoid it is to regularly focus on something in the distance for a few seconds.
I was told VDU work certainly doesn't cause long term or permanent sight damage.

Re: Show us your workstations
maybe its because the if you sit to close to the screen you will get square eyes is an old wives tale
The worst I noticed was if you look at a screen that is to bright or the contrast is to high you can get a headache and thats it
