Many people like to put a glass table top on their office desk, which not only makes the entire desktop smooth and beautiful, but also protects the desktop. But in fact, this is not a good practice. If people work on this glass table top for a long time, it will not only not improve work efficiency, but also cause certain damage to the body.
Glass is a long-standing inorganic material, which is widely used in daily life and work due to its high density and strong reflection. However, this glass panel is not suitable for people to read or write on for a long time. This is also related to the characteristics of the glass panel. We all know that glass panels have strong reflectivity. When people study or work on the desk, their mouths and noses are close to the glass panel. The waste gases such as carbon dioxide exhaled by people are easily reflected back by the glass table top and inhaled back into the body. It is well known that a certain concentration of carbon dioxide can cause suffocation, poisoning, and mild symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and indigestion. When the concentration of inhaled carbon dioxide exceeds 20%, a few seconds can be fatal.
Therefore, it is not wise to put a glass table top on the desk. In addition, attention should also be paid to the temperature of the glass table top, which is generally about 10℃ lower than room temperature. In summer, people wear short sleeves. When the bare elbows are pressed directly on the glass table top colder than room temperature, the sudden temperature drop will cause rapid contraction of capillaries and pores, hindering the dissipation of internal body heat and leading to sweating. Therefore, for the sake of our health, do not use a glass table top on the desktop. If you must use a glass table top, it is best to open the windows to ensure air circulation.
Many people like to put colorful pictures under the glass table top to make the desk look more beautiful. But doing so will distract people's attention when they work and also affect their health. This is because strong colors can stimulate the eyes and affect people's vision, causing visual fatigue. Therefore, when using a glass table top, it is recommended to put some dark green non-light velvet cloth or similar items under the table top, which can protect the eyes.
Editor's Note:
Most people have the habit of looking in the mirror, so they will place many mirrors in their homes. These mirrors placed in the home can cause visual confusion. If people are in this environment for a long time, it will make their minds unfocused and in a state of mental weakness, and they are more likely to have hallucinations. When people look in the mirror and pity themselves because of unpleasant things, the mirror will indirectly harm them. If there are elderly people in the house, it is even more inappropriate to place too many mirrors in the house. When people are in an environment surrounded by mirrors, they will indulge in themselves and exacerbate a self-centered personality, which is not good for their mental health.
