	Yes.  I had perfect vision until I got a job using CRTs for 
8-10hrs/day.  A few months later I needed glasses (age 20 then)

It gets worse, but never better, to my knowledge.

	I wish now, that I could get a job staring at _far away_ 
things for 8-10hrs/day, maybe that would fix them (^8.

Is there anything?   I doubt it.
