Really

Most of this Primary Healthcare centres are short of staffs, in some, like the one in my area have only one Nurse. Our Government need to revisit PHC conditions.

Most of us spend hours each day looking at a
computer and other electronic devices -- for some of
us, it’s our job -- and we suffer the consequences.
Computer eye strain is a very real problem caused by
bad habits and bad situations.
Would you believe that 50 to 90 percent of computer
users have the same problems you do? That’s what
some research has shown. Don’t worry though. You
can do a number of things that really work to reduce
your computer eye strain symptoms.
Still, I strongly suggest you get a professional eye
exam if computer eye strain is bothering you. My eye
doctor said dealing with issues related to computers
is most of his business these days.
There’s lots of advice on the Internet about computer
vision syndrome, dry eyes and related eye health
issues, but it’s hard to know what advice to trust.
Below are some proven things you can do to get your
computer eye strain under control.

1. Get rid of glare.
If you have a modern computer monitor, you may
not notice as much glare as there was with old CRT
monitors. Still, glare from the screen and from
nearby surfaces can be a significant problem.
Cover windows in your work area, if possible, and
consider repainting or covering glaring walls. Then,
get a pair of computer glasses, prescription
eyeglasses or reading glasses with anti-glare or anti-
reflective coating. This so-called AR coating can make
a huge difference.

2. Change your display.
Imperceptible flickering of older picture-tube CRT
monitors can be a problem. If the refresh rate is less
than 75 hertz, you probably need a different monitor.
Even if you already have a modern flat-panel LCD
computer monitor, you may not have the best model
available. Resolution makes a difference. Cheap
computer packages often come with cheap, low-
resolution monitors. You also want the largest
monitor your workspace can accommodate. In most
cases, it needs to be at least 19 inches.

3. Change the contrast, text size and other
settings.
When proofreading, typing long documents or doing
other tasks that require looking at the same image
for a long period of time, it’s important to make sure
you have the best contrast, color and text size
settings you can get.
Go for larger text, and consider switching to light-
colored text on a dark background. You may find this
easier on your eyes and therefore less likely to
aggravate your computer eye strain symptoms.

4. Try to blink more.
For many computer eye strain symptoms - including
dry eyes, itching and scratchiness -- part of the
problem is that you’re not blinking often enough.
When we concentrate, we tend to blink less. Try
intentionally blinking more, looking from your
keyboard to you monitor more frequently and
looking away whenever you can.
Some research shows that we blink only one-fifth as
often when at the computer as we normally do. That
allows our eyes to dry -- plus the already-dry air in
our homes and offices makes the problem even
worse.

5. Get some eye exercise.
Computer eye strain is also caused by doing the
same thing for too long, so try looking away, getting
up to look around and closing your eyes more often.
Looking at a distant objects helps reduce the strain
on your eye muscles and can relieve many of your
symptoms.
Even better, switch between looking at nearby and
faraway objects frequently during mini-exercise
periods every 20 minutes or so. These exercises can
loosen tight eye muscles and make them feel better.

6. Use some kind of computer eyewear.
Eyewear can do a number of things to reduce your
computer-related symptoms. It can protect your eyes
from drying winds, help reduce glare and provide
just enough magnification to reduce the strain on
your eye muscles.
If you already wear glasses, ask your optometrist about a special prescription for use only at the
computer. If you don’t wear glasses, you may find
that you can benefit from low power reading glasses
or computer glasses.


Before It Gets Any Worse
Take the time to solve your computer eye strain
issues before they get any worse. I waited longer
than I should have, and I put myself through a lot of
unnecessary pain and anxiety. Once I started using
lubricating drops (another great tip) and low power
reading glasses, I was able to get my symptoms
under control.
I’m not saying my eyes never hurt anymore, but I can
tell you this: Since I started paying more attention to
my eye health, my life has gone nowhere but up.

benghaziii: nawahaaaaaaaaa.
privatization... will favour doctors more...there will be total job descriptions n specifications which will in turn put the doctors at d top..

Where the Doctors at the bottom before?, or where other health workers earning more than them ? "what a baseless deduction".

HIV OR EBOLA which will you rather have

nationwide24: No need for google here. Everyone knows it. In hospital environment, d term "doctor" is exclusively for medical doctors to avoid confusion. Or you mean we should have doctor pharmacy technicians, doctor theatre attendant, doctor lab scientist, etc.

Hospital has different Departments, a patient knows that a pharmacy dept will be hosted by a pharmacist, so is other DEPT.
Patients are not ignorant as you think

nationwide24: I don't think the NMA demands are unrealistic outrightly. For example, is it not ridiculous to mention hazard allowance as 5k for doctors? Is it right to call every worker in the hospital doctor? Meaning even cleaners and attendants will be called doctors. Also, we will now have pharmacy technicians, consultant lab scientist. Come to think of it, NMA demands are genuine, fair and very realistic.

And who told you only MDs are awarded professional Doctorate after completion of their training in school, their are DOs, ODs, Pharm Ds, and others
Google is your friend, use it wisely.
Are you saying that a nurse who has his/her Ph.D should not be address as Doctor and be deprived of the benefit that come with upgrade as a Nigerian CIVIL SERVANT. then if the MDs are on strike cos of this , their demand is unrealistic

Thank God some eye Doctors are not among this foolishness

Thank God some eye Doctors are not among this foolishness

SAKA will soon start advertising what airtel has just abadoned trust empty eh

Any time a Med Doctor makes a mistake the word quack is usually abscribe to him/her, our doctors do not have the experience of aborting a pregnancy cos of our law against it, what do a 35years doctor knows. RIP

they can do whatever they like but prophetic word of isaiah that they can do nothing about......Endtime things is not a joke

boyroy02: Going on and on abt this argument is so not called for,its simple d only good use of spending 4yrs in a Nigerian uni is jst having d cert. Where as in d real world having d cert nd not being able to live up to d cert u have practically to me its simple 4 yrs wasted, cause u can do any other cause whether science or art it doesn't matter if u really have a flair for computers nd want to do great tinz with it, u can with out studying computer science in sch, u need is self development nd probably a good Computer INSTITUTE too, i studying mech Eng in sch thou wanted to study com sci but realized it was point less considering d so many great tinz i can do already without even evr enrolling in any computer training center or institute imagine if i had attended 1 d greater possibilities i'll be able to achieve, again i say it doesn't matter wat u study cuz as a mech Eng student i do assignments for computer science student in sch, i was so good a group of dem suggest dat i start up practical lessons for dem nd yes i did nd earned 4rm it. 'In essence all am trying to say is u can be great in d world of computer regardless of ur area of study if u have d love for it nd can identify ur area of interest in computer cuz d world of computer is very vast'

you are absolutely right!! i am an Optometrist and a web designer

paddy4destiny: do not neglect the power of pascal and fortran, both are very good start-up lang

both are very good waste of time

Afam4eva: Na waoo...So, it has gotten to this level where we beg Kenya for visa?

Let just say Kenya presido understand the value of genuie Naija business men, if am telling lies! ask Ghana.
All we need is an enabling enviroment which our government at home here refuses to provide.

A series of verses in John 3 is
commonly misunderstood by people
who believe that they can be “born
again” in this life, as physical human
beings, and, therefore, “see the kingdom
of God.”
In this account, Nicodemus questioned
Christ, who answered, “Except a man be
born again , he cannot see the kingdom
of God” ( vs. 3 ). Confused, Nicodemus
replied, “How can a man be born when
he is old? Can he enter the second time
into his mother’s womb, and be born?
Jesus answered…Except a man be born
of water [the first physical, human birth]
and of the Spirit [again later, at the
resurrection], he cannot enter into the
kingdom of God” ( vs. 4-5 ). To see and
enter into God’s kingdom, you must
become spirit. But people are physical.
Entering the kingdom is impossible for
them, because Paul wrote that “flesh
and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of
God” ( I Cor. 15:50 )!
While Nicodemus knew exactly what
being born meant, he was confused
about how it could happen again—a
second time. This is why he asked
about re-entering his mother’s womb.
However, ministers and religious leaders
today are deceived and confused in a
different way. They claim that being born
again has nothing to do with an actual
birth—but that it is a feeling, an
experience, a “conversion” and the like.
In verse 5 , Christ explains what it means
to be “born of water and of the Spirit,”
and why, if this does not happen, one
“cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”
Yes, the kingdom is something that can
be “entered into.” But Christ explains His
“born of water and of the Spirit” phrase
when He states, “That which is born of
the flesh IS flesh” and then “that which
is born of the Spirit IS spirit” ( vs. 6).
Of course it is. Flesh and blood cannot
enter the kingdom of God— but spirit
can! Human beings are made of dust
( Gen. 2:7 ; 3:19 ), not spirit. Those born
again are composed of spirit.
When born as humans, we are delivered
from a physical mother. When born of
spirit, we are delivered from a spiritual
mother, the Church. People are destined
to be born again as spirit, like Christ
was , just as surely as they are born
physically of a human mother, like Christ
was . This will become plain.
Because Christ wanted no room for
misunderstanding, He likened spirit to
wind. Wind, like spirit, is invisible. It
cannot be seen. Christ told Nicodemus,
“The wind blows where it lists [does],
and you hear the sound thereof, but
cannot tell from where it comes, and
where it goes: so is every one that is
born of the Spirit” ( vs. 8 ). Those who
are born of spirit will be like wind—they
will be invisible! But human beings are
flesh and blood, and can be seen.
Another comparison is important. Wind
often demonstrates enormous POWER.
While invisible, its effects are easily
seen. The force of hurricanes, typhoons,
tornadoes and straight-line winds can
be tremendous. But people possess
relatively little power. The power of wind
vastly exceeds that of the strongest
human being—or a million put together!
So, there is a limitation on who can
actually see and enter the kingdom.
Anyone can see physical things.
Therefore, the kingdom cannot be
something physical, or everyone could
see it. Understand these critical points
that Christ made. You must be spirit to
see the invisible kingdom of God!
Proper understanding of the Bible’s
teaching about being born again is vital
—absolutely paramount—to both “see”
and to “enter into” the kingdom of God.
Grasp this about the John 3 account!
Christ was making an exciting, thrilling
announcement about the kingdom of
God coming to earth—and that people
can be born into it
