        Unfortunately, no. I used to work in the college of engineering here
at USF (University of South Florida) when ergonomics was fashionable. That
is what all the engineering professors said.
        Also, a friend of mine (a scary genius type) has a father who is
even more of a scary genius type. The father is an ophthalmologist and
neurophysiologist who has worked on things like forced 3D perspective for
media and truth/lying responses watching someone's iris. He's retired now,
but he had to stop taking new patients almost three years before retiring.
Anyway, he also said the same thing.
