ABSTRACT

As computers grow more prevalent in our daily lives, an increasing number of people are reporting a variety of ocular symptoms associated to computer use. Eyestrain, tired eyes, discomfort, redness, blurred vision, and double vision are all symptoms of computer vision syndrome. Because of the growing use of technology in daily life, this syndrome is gaining prominence in the current period. The underlying factors contributing to CVS include improper viewing distances, poor ergonomic setups, low display quality, excessive screen brightness, and reduced blink rates. Accurate diagnosis and management need proper identification of symptoms and causal causes. Hence according to our review a greater understanding of symptom etiology can help professional advice to be more effective in minimizing negative effects on visual and ocular surface health and discomfort.
