This is the safest distance according to me, I often find this distance comfortable to my eyes. This wont tire your eyes much when you compared to when sitting much closer. I have also read a lot of people stating one arm distance is much better, try working around with various distances. In case you decide more the distance more the comfortable you are, please make sure you keep the resolution accordingly. Make sure whatever you are doing is big enough for your eyes to see.Give rest to your eyes.
Give enough rest to your eyes after long hours of computer usage. If you are too busy just lean back and stand up, stare 20 feet away for 20 seconds and later close your eyes for a few seconds and then continue.

Few tips to keep in mind.
