I'm using an old 17" CRT. It produces good color with calibration but
whether it can accurately position a single pixel is probably very
questionable. The pixels are also small relative to larger displays.
I've also been using ordinary reading glasses after my cataract
surgeries of almost 2 years ago. I know there are differences between
the left and right eyes. That doesn't seem to matter much for everyday
reading but critical viewing is something I don't have.
I do see the modifications if I magnify the view but not otherwise.
