To prevent issues such as sore necks and headaches, it is essential to align the monitor to eye level. Traditional monitors typically require employees to adapt to a fixed workstation environment, but with adjustable stands, users can modify the screen’s height and angle, promoting a neutral posture and reducing pain during long work hours. Monitors with ergonomic stands – such as LG business monitors – present built-in adjustable functions like tilt, swivel and 90-degree rotation for a more flexible and comfortable work environment.3
2. Maintain Optimal Viewing Distance

Limited desktop space often constrains employees to sit in a position too close to the monitor, resulting in eye strain and neck fatigue. To help maintain an optimal viewing distance – typically an arm’s length – LG business monitors feature a slim stand and integrated power module. This streamlined design saves space, keeping workstations more organized and supporting better ergonomic practices.
3. Adjust Screen Settings

To protect eye health, adjustable monitor settings and specifically designed modes are available for individuals who use screens extensively. For instance, Reader Mode on LG business monitors alters the screen’s color temperature to reduce blue light, enhancing legibility to reduce eye strain for comfort and relief during prolonged periods of screen time.
4. Utilizing Ergonomic Monitors
