As someone who has been reading/playing games in bed since early teens into my 30s - I think I'm ok. Not sure what you mean about it having worse effects on your health than a pack of smokes a day - in what way exactly? I've never had any trouble falling asleep, games or no games, put my head down and I'm out in 30 seconds or less, one of those people I guess.
- npunt 3y agoYou're getting quite close to the age that presbyopia is going to set in, which will make gaming in bed or any other near-vision activity significantly more difficult and even painful. Happens more when you're tired or in darker light, aka in bed. You haven't felt it til now because the muscles in our eyes are strong enough in our teens to 30s, but know it's coming! I'm in my early 40s and it set in during covid, plus I got way more nearsided (-2) after having stable vision for 20 years. No way I'd game in bed now or put a device even somewhat close to my face. Best to adjust your habits before you start feeling it!
- hammyhavoc 3y agoNot everybody is affected by presbyopia. A lot of people are, but not everybody.
