I have my monitors quite high up, my eye level is about the middle of the centre screen.

What do you guys find most comfortable?

Prefer the same, the middle of the screen.

Center of the screen is slightly lower than my eyes. I always preferred it like that. an offset about 1 or 2 cm max.

My eyes have to be at the same level as the top of the screen. Hard to achieve when constantly working on a laptop... That is why I'm basically lying below the desk in office Laughing

My monitor is one of the crazy ones that can't be adjusted, so I have to adapt myself by keeping my chair as low as possible in order to avoid the "giraffe" effect. Still, my eye level is often above the top of the screen. Third world's first world problems Very Happy Laughing

My monitor is missing the riser too. So, I adjusted it to the desired level by putting books underneath it Crying or Very sad Laughing Very Happy

Ahh books, the universal monitor riser Very Happy

I only ask, as I'm trying to figure out what would be better... the way I have it right now, or to have my eyes level with the top of the screens, looking slightly down. Is there any fatigue advantage at all? (I can't just 'try it' as it would involve some messing about with wires and such like, 3 screens and all..)
