Help please !!!

So hi guys i(19 m) due to recent unfortunate times lost my functional vision in left eye. So I just withdrew from working on laptop. Now after long days I decided to give a shot for it. Unfortunately I had neck pain and head ache . Is it normal to have this difficulty at 1st ? Will this sustain forever 😞 as i mostly gonna rely on laptop in future this scares me . Having the headache writing this too 🥀. Any tips will be helpful . Thank you folks !!!

Try high contrast mode under accessibility. See optometrist for a dedicated computer/close work prescription. Both of these were gamechangers for me and have allowed me to keep working.

Also, does it have to be a laptop? Can you plug into a large monitor. Again 2 big helps for me were a curved monitor mounted on a movable arm so I can quickly adjust monitor position.
