When you are working at the computer, rest your eyes for at least 20 seconds by looking at something 20 feet (6.1 m) away after using the computer for 20 minutes. If you have a window nearby, looking at something outdoors is a great option.

My favorite textbook is Sipser’s Introduction to the Theory of Computation, In my first year at Caltech, I took our theory of computation class. And I remember staying up late at night reading this, unable to put it down. That class put me on the path to doing a PhD in CS instead of pure math. I now jump at the chance to TA our theory of computation class every year, because I have such fond memories of taking it.
