Protect your eyes with Eye Care+ technology


Color Augmentation Mode

Color Augmentation mode helps users with a color-vision deficiency differentiate colors. The mode lets users customize onscreen reds, greens, yellows and blues into hues that are easier to distinguish, improving the viewing experience.

Rest Reminder It's time to take a break

Taking a brief 10-minute rest every half hour or so, or adopting the 20-20-20 rule, can help prevent eye strain. The Rest Reminder feature lets users set pop-up reminders at 5-minute intervals, noting when it’s time step away from the screen.

Adjustable ASUS Blue Light Filter Viewing photos and videos

An integrated TÃœV Rheinland-certified ASUS Blue Light Filter protects eyes from harmful blue light. Settings can be quickly accessed via the onscreen display (OSD) menu, and an intuitive slider makes it easy to adjust filter levels to suit any scenario or user preference.

Flicker Free Technology Say goodbye to tired, strained eyes

Integrated TÃœV Rheinland-certified ASUS Flicker Free technology reduces onscreen flicker to ensure comfortable viewing. This technology helps minimiz

Long-lasting antibacterial treatment Stay clean, stay healthy

The bezels and hotkeys on VY279HE-W feature an antibacterial ionic silver treatment1. By preventing bacteria adhesion2 by up to 99.9%, it keeps key areas of the monitor clean and hygienic, potentially reducing the spread of harmful bacteria.

How Ionic Silver works

Positively-charged silver (Ag+) ions bind with the cell walls of negatively-charged microbes and bacteria, disrupting their internal functions and killing them off.

Check your eyes anytime!

Activate the built-in EyeCheck3 function via the monitor hotkey to view eye charts for short- or long-sightedness.

Don’t forget to blink

We tend to forget to blink, especially when focused on something onscreen. Blinking helps lubricate your eyes and keeps them healthy.

Posture

Sitting up straight decreases pressure on your neck and back. It’s also good practice to sit at least 20 inches, or an arm’s length, away from your computer screen, with the keyboard close and directly in front of you.

Healthy diet

Having a balanced diet that includes green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, nuts, fish and carrots gives you Omega-3, Vitamins A, C and E — all vital for healthy eyes.
