Where should the top of your computer screen be for the best posture?

At or slightly below your eye level when sitting up straight.

  1. At eye level or slightly below ✔
  2. Tilted back looking up
  3. Looking down at your desk

Why: Your eyes naturally look slightly downward. If the screen is too high or too low, you will bend your neck and cause muscle strain.

Huh, didn't know that: Your monitor should also be about an arm's length away from your face.
