Focusing on a document requires the muscles in your eyes to contract to
keep the image sharp. Each time your eyes shift from the document to the
monitor they must refocus. Eventually they become fatigued. Ultimately,
the result is eye fatigue, eyestrain, or headaches which can affect productivity
and accuracy.
When the document is placed flat on the work surface, you will use head
and neck movements to shift your view between the document and the monitor.
These movements can cause neck strain if performed repeatedly, or day
after day.

is off the flat work surface and in your line of vision.

is directly next to the monitor,or between the monitor and the keyboard.
11c. The document
is at the same distance as, or closer than, the monitor.
11d. You can look
at the document and the monitor by moving only your eyes, not your
head.
