Abstract
An optical filter screen for a visual display monitor includes an optical filter supported by a support frame. A pair of adjustable mounting members support the support frame from a visual display monitor or similar such that the optical filter is positioned adjacent a display area of the display monitor. Each mounting member includes a stem element with a first and second end. A support element is rotatably engaged with the first end of the stem element so that in a first stop position the support element extends outwardly from the stem element to engage a top surface of the visual display unit. The support element folds down into a second storage position in which it lies substantially parallel with the stem element.
