Abstract

Methods and systems for reducing eye strain for multiple users are described herein. The method includes calculating, for each viewer, a metric representing a degree of eye strain of the viewer based on eye activity of the first viewer. The method further involves determining whether each metric is within a range indicating an acceptable degree of eye strain for each viewer. If a metric is not within the range indicating an acceptable degree of eye strain, then, for each viewer, a subset of display settings that is known to cause the metric to be within the viewer's range is identified. The method further involves identifying an additional subset of display settings, where the additional subset is made up of display settings that are also in each viewer's subset. A display setting is selected from this additional subset, and the display is generated according to the selected display setting.
