Your Questions, Our Vision

Eye strain and fading focus often start with one hidden cause: insufficient or uneven light. Its damage is unseen, but lasting. That’s why the right light matters.

BenQ ASYM-Light technology simulating asymmetric light path for monitor light bar, preventing screen glare while evenly lighting the desktop.

BenQ ScreenBar 18-degree anti-glare optical design keeps the desktop bright while ensuring light never shines directly into the eyes.

BenQ ScreenBar reflector tested and refined through repeated experiments to restore pure light, ensuring accurate and eye-care illumination.

Why do I need a monitor light bar when there are overhead lights?

Overhead lights sit too far from the desk to meet international illuminance standards, causing insufficient lighting—the hidden cause of eye strain and poor focus. ScreenBar® centers on you, delivering precise light to keep your eyes clear and comfortable.

What’s the purpose of using a monitor light?

What’s the difference between a monitor light bar and a desk lamp?

Traditional desk lamps scatter light, take up desk space, and cause glare or screen reflections. BenQ ScreenBar® redefines lighting with a space-saving design and asymmetric optics—directing light only where needed. No clutter, no glare, just clear, comfortable illumination.

Monitor Light Bar vs. Desk Lamp: The Verdict

Is working in the dark really better for eye health?

Working in the dark may feel focusing, but it actually strains your eyes. The harsh contrast between your bright screen and the dark surroundings forces your eyes to work harder and cause fatigue. BenQ ScreenBar® helps protect your vision without disrupting your deep-work flow.

Discover a smarter way to work in the dark

Will a monitor light bar damage my screen?

Absolutely not. Unlike alternatives that clamp tightly onto the monitor, BenQ’s ScreenBar® uses a patented hanging design with a counterweight for stability without stress. Soft rubber pads prevent scratches, while every detail is crafted to protect your screen.
