Because I am near sighted I work with my eyeglasses off - have gotten to that age were I can't see in the 18 to 24 inch distance with or without glasses. So I put the iPad in my lap causing weird hand angles to the side and found myself hyperextending my neck downwards. Not really bad but i have to watch that old whiplash injury.

I hold the iPad in my left hand and operate it with my right. I never noticed it before, but as I'm moving my hand around the screen I tend to keep my wrist bent slightly backward putting a strain on the muscle connecting to my elbow. He suggested keeping my wrist straight or bent slightly forward and move my whole arm instead of just my wrist.
