Ady, are you using a CRT, LCD, or Plasma monitor? If it's CRT, then it can cause some eye strain. Back in Junior High, I had to get glasses for my computer class because the monitors were giving me eye strain. Of course, since then, I haven't had need for glasses, so, my eyes have adjusted. I've also been using LCD monitors for the last eight years, and that should offer no such strain (likely the same for plasma screens).

I know you've got a lot of work left to get done on this project, but it shouldn't trump your well being. For instance, last October I was being hit with these severe headaches (not blinding migraines, but bad enough) and neck pain on my left side. It got so bad one night that I was literally crying out in pain. My mom had to take me to the ER, and we were there all night. Took morphine and some other drugs to end the pain. It was all from muscle strain in my neck. What caused it, I'm not sure. I was under a lot of frustration from a film production that had just blown up in my face after six months of work. Plus, I do see a chiropractor for my back and neck. Fact is, if you do have severe pain, definitely check in with a physician. That's the biggest favor you can do for yourself.
