Hello,

I'm a journalist and novels writer and as a result of my job I spend a long time reading texts on the computer. Some days up to 9-10 hours a day.

As a result of this, obviously my eyes get very tired at the end of the day.

I would like to minimize the impact of this. I would like to know, or if you can point me towards some research or papers about the best way to read texts on a computer monitor.

To be more precise, I'd like to know what are the background and foreground (text) colors that work best to minimize strain in the eyes.

I have heard that absolute black against yellow works good, but I have also heard that it could be black on grey background. I'm confused. RGB values instead of color names would be prefered.

Thanks
