I really dont see any difference from using the computer all day from the time i wake up till the time i go to sleep. When i wake up i skype with my girlfriend which is a program that is used to talk to someone over a headset, like talking to someone over the phone. Only thing i really notice is i start getting a small headache which isnt bad at all.
When i was younger i had really bad headaches all the time, everyday i would come home with a headache. Eventually that got better (maybe had something to do with allergies, who knows) but my mother is the same way.
What i have noticed about my vision is, when i try focusing my eyes on a certain object, it doesnt focus on it. I can get it to focus for a second or two then its like my eyes push away like they're tired of staring at it lol.

On the other hand, other activities might not be so damaging. And the social/emotional support is definitely an asset that shouldn't be overlooked.
How is your vision? Does reading make your symptoms flare?
