Why switch to an ergonomic mouse?

A standard mouse makes you turn your palm flat to the desk, which twists your forearm and keeps your muscles tense. Over hours of use, that can lead to discomfort in the wrist, forearm, elbow and shoulder. An ergonomic mouse changes your hand position so your arm can relax — but only if it fits your hand and suits how you work.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best ergonomic mouse?

There isn’t one best mouse for everyone. For most people, a vertical mouse sized to their hand — such as the Ease Vertical Ergonomic Mouse for medium hands — is the best starting point. People with shoulder pain often do better with a centred roller mouse.

Are vertical mice worth it?

For many people with wrist or forearm discomfort, yes. A vertical mouse reduces forearm twisting and is easy to adjust to.

What is the best ergonomic mouse for small hands?

Choose a mouse sized for small hands, such as the Ergo Comfi, Delux Mini Vertical or Evoluent VMR4 Small.
