Maybe it's your monitor. Maybe it's too bright or too dark. I know there's different type of monitors with different types of glares..So maybe you need a different monitor but I don't know. Do you have this problem doing other things on your computer?
I know I get a headache when I was playing 14 tables at once for 2 hours.

I solved that similar problem by going to optician. He gave me glasses only +0,50 both eyes. No problems since, and my headaches are gone too. And i looklike little viser too

Yep. Get yourself a new monitor, or at least, if you still use a CRT, up the refresh rate.
I got hedache only afer 9h of play...lol... I only played once so long and it was very bad for my eyes i think... A new monitor could solve the problem but also going to an optican is not a bad idea... You should think about it

LCD monitors are certainly easier on the eye than the old type. But really, if the problem is that bad, see your optician, don't try get around it in other ways. I can sit for hours at the pc with no such problems.

Lol yep they are right, go to a doctor, probably you need to use glasses! But if after one hour your eys start burning then you should be at a computer in a place with light and try not to stare to the monitor to much, look at other sites, to the walls to tv, etc!

I luckily don't have that problem multi tabling 4-6h/d. But those other advices sounds true - you could at least try playing wearing sunglasses for a couple of hours.
