Dark theme?

I've looked all over and haven't found any color options for the forum. Is there a hidden setting somewhere? I have sensitive eyes and the white is blinding.

Nothing. Have you tried brightness or night mode for your display?

It's a shared work computer so I don't mess with the settings. Most forums have different themes. Bummer!

I have often used "computer glasses" or clip ons. They can be yellow, brown or pinkish in color, and can be ordered as reading glasses like +0.5, +1.0, +1.5 and so on. I really liked them right after I had LASIK. They reduce the amount of blue color reaching your eye.

I had LASIK 2 years ago and my eyes are still a little wonky. 20/20 but very prone to glares and halos. Almost wish I never had the surgery.

I Amazoned a pair of computer glasses. Thanks for the suggestion. I stare at a computer 10+ hours a day.

Mine were too. Finally went away. My mistake was to let them talk me into doing "monovision" where one eye is tuned for close up and the other for distance. Took a long time to get used to that. After about 6 years went back to glasses for driving. Don't need them for reading or computer work. But now they are 0.5 and 1.25, not 8.5 and 8.75 like they used to be.

But ,my eye guy fixed me up with some pink tinted readers and man that sure helped
