Oh, I've just noticed there are some messages personally for me.

Suki DaisukiBTW Nick your eyes might blur again after 5-9 months. My big sister also had that operation but soon her eyes blurred again after 7 months.
Thanks a lot for health recommendations, guys.
Yeah I notice that after sitting for a few hours in front of the screen it's harder to focus on distant objects. I guess there's other way to keep the eyesight intact but to avoid using the pc for long hours and take breaks.
Spending less time on pc will of course tell on my japanese studies, slowing down my progress. Kanji are very bad for eyesight. Back when I took lessons from Suzuki-sensei, I noticed he could barely see anything farther than 2 meters away from him.
Closer to the topic, im@s game still awaits me and for now I have to stick to reading manga and listening to im@s cds. Lately I've come up with some discoveries (at least for me personally) and I'll try to write a few lines about my impressions in the corresponding threads below.
