and my eyes more relaxed  than ever!\n\n\u003e When **astigmatism** is combined with **ambylopia** (*1% of the general population on average*), no matter what kind of corrective lens you use; when you code for long hours, your eyes lose their ability to focus, and you start to see “halos” around text, accompanied by headaches and eye fatigue.\n\u003e\n\u003e Of course the ideal solution is to\u0026hellip;\n\u003e\n\u003e * Use a decent monitor;\n\u003e * Not to forget to **BLINK** (that’s really important!);\n\u003e * And get away from the darn monitor every hour and **relax** your eyes by focusing objects that are far away (like a mountain, or the horizon)\n\nIf you say “Ain’t nobody have time fo dat!”, read on\u0026hellip;\n\nIf you have astigmatism, ambylopia, and a few other eye disorders combined, then good old solutions like **[Solarized](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized)**, will not work so well, since they don’t have enough contrast.\n\nOn the other hand, a really high-contrast theme can equally be tiresome to your eye.\n\nIn deed, contrast is a double-edged sword:\n\n* The higher the contrast, the more readable the color scheme is,\n* And the lower the contrast the less tiring the color scheme will be to the eyes.\n\nAnd the perfect sweet spot depends from person to person; and also it depends on the overall lighting conditions of the coding environment.\n\n**Plain** color scheme has high enough contrast to make is pleasing to the eye; and low enough contrast to make it less tiresome. And since it is a dark-on-light scheme, it’s a really nice fit for those who have astigmatism.\n\nCurrently I have only have a **vim** GUI scheme (*because I use _vim_ all the time, and it is the best editor in the known universe*).\n\nFeel free to fork **plain**, add variations, and/or support for your favorite development environment.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fzerotohero-dev%2Fplain","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fzerotohero-dev%2Fplain","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fzerotohero-dev%2Fplain/lists"}
