I'm looking for help / resources / references for a friend who has
developed severe eyestrain problems from working on a SUN workstation.

This person had worked on terminals for years, but developed blinding
headaches and eyestrain after only two hours of working on a new SUN
workstation with white background, black lettering.  She is also one of
those people who can detect fluorescent light flicker (when others can't).

Although she has stopped working, the problem has gotten progressively
worse, prevented her from reading, or watching TV.

Any good directions to start out to research a problem like this?  Please
e-mail to {att,bellcore,sun,ames,pyramid}!pacbell!mee Thanks in advance
for any replies or help.

I apologize if this was previously posted; I was unable to verify th
original posting.
