If your monitor looks blurry or you have a hard time getting your
eye's to focus on the monitor then the convergence is way off. If you
have a convergence control, sean's monitor doesn't have one, you can
play with it and notice if you look closely at text or hard lines a
red or blue shadow ether on the sides (V convergence) or top/bottom (H
convergence).
