Sit the proper distance from the screen

OliviaF

The recommendation for how far away you should sit from the screen can vary depending on the size, shape and manufacturer of the TV you buy, but most people suggest you multiply the height of the screen in inches by 2.5 and use that as a basic guide for how far away to sit for maximum viewing pleasure.

And don't sit too close, or you'll go blind... ;-)
