I also have a HUD in my car and I can read it just fine, even in bright sunlight.

It’s quite difficult to take a lot of breaks when you’re focused on work.

Life is a series of compromises. Whether you prioritize your work or your health is up to you, and I believe worth continuous debate.

You can prioritize both, actually. If you can keep your eyes focused at a longer distance while you’re working, you won’t develop nearsightedness/myopia.
