Something like that mostly depends on your vision beforehand, I'd guess. I have horrible vision in the first place, so naturally staring at the computer/tv and reading without my glasses on doesn't help, but it might not be the same for you.

I thin the world would have cared if my Dad was blind at 40.

Over the last year or so, my vision hasn't changed at all, even though I've been on the computer a lot. However, when I was younger, say 11-13ish using the computer drastically crapped up my vision. I'm sure the effects aren't going to be great when you get older, but I doubt you'll go completely blind unless you're basically 5-7 inches away from your computer screen 6 hours a day.

But you might get radiation poisoning, pass out, and then die.

Pfft. You won't. You won't die either. Lol.

I've had bad eyes since I was in second grade.. >.< Right now my contacts say -5.00 and -5.75 and haha, I'm not wearing those for a while. I've always used the comp a lot as well, and my vision hasn't changed that much in the past four or five years... but now I have corneal neovascularization, dry eye, and blepharitis. I'm currently taking three medications. >.<

Don't worry about going blind... you have nothing to worry about really.
