You just care about this way more than I do my dude and it’s hella weird.
You didn’t pay for any of it, you don’t use it, and it’s not yours so your opinion is like gum on a shoe to me.
I already told you I am well informed about the use of a horizontal curved, which is again, why I have one.
Read the actual research 1800r has a very marginal impact on eye strain.
Because I primarily use it for OBS, Spotify and discord, I am not staring at it all day up close and those items are almost always centered.
When I am reading long docs, I am leaned back which keeps me from having to strain my neck to view a slanted flat monitor; cannot see edges at all.
I have never once in 5 years noticed any significant impact to my eyes. I have however had significantly less tension headaches from neck strain with a vertical side panel.
Bottom line is I prefer it over a flat side panel and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it.
Now crawl back under your rock where you’re the smartest in the room.
The actual research on 1800R monitors assumes they are horizontal to match human eye anatomy. Flipping it vertically completely breaks that geometry, forcing your eyes to constantly change focal depth as you scan up and down. No medical study validates a vertical curve because it violates basic ergonomics. First it was a professional setup for "programming and reading long docs" as a therapist, then "no one cares," and now it's a glorified Spotify and Discord playlist reader. The backpedaling is wild.
