Ideal Monitor Height for Neck Pain Relief
The single most effective ergonomic adjustment for neck pain is correct monitor height. The top bezel must be at eye level.
Your monitor height determines your neck angle throughout the workday. When the top bezel is at eye level, your gaze falls naturally on the upper third of the screen, keeping your cervical spine neutral. If your monitor is too low, you'll tilt your head forward; too high and you'll crane your neck back.
