The game heart my eyes

Helluuuuuuu

Sit further away from your monitor. Either push your monitor back or push your chair away.

If you're leaning close because things are hard to read, increase the size of your UI.

idk, if this was such a big problem im sure lot of people would have issues myself included who has sensitive eyes (done lasek too so extra sensitive) and i havnt had any problems. Also play on max settings

i use a TV for a monitor to avoid the light computer monitors emit, the TV doesn't hurt my eyes and i can game for a long time without issues. its way easier on the eyes for me. TV : Sony 46inch

1 - In the System Settings make sure that you have the Frame Rate set to limit at 60 FPS, if there's too much discrepancy between the Refresh Rate of your monitor and the frame rate, you can get weird visual tearing and it can actually cause eyestrain really badly. (I actually had this happen recently - I switched the frame rate limit off on FFXIV -- just to see how high it would go -- and forgot to change it back and for the four days it was on, every time I played I got really dizzy and my eyes would hurt. Once I switched the FPS limit back to 60, the issue went away while playing.)

2. FFXIV seems to have a harsher lighting palette than other games due to its vibrancy and seems to affect people more who are already sensitive to blue light and computer vision syndrome. I'd recommend either using f.lux to warm the colors of your computer screen to something more akin to natural lighting or getting a pair of computer glasses that help with eye strain and blue light emission.

Check the setting on your TV / Monitor and make sure they match your game settings on PC / Gaming console. You could also try wearing anti blue light glasses. Love hurts I know.

This happened to me as well, it gave me headaches.
