can play the computer whole day which could lead them to some
diseases.
Facing the monitor for long time can create the tiredness
for eyes. It will make people dizzy. Further effect, glasses will be
the options, why? Because our sight becomes blur (abnormal).
Other effect is backache. It is sometimes too fun playing
computer that make people don’t realize their seat position. That’s
why after playing whole day they will get backache.
