Computer Vision Syndrome


Computer Vision Syndrome, also referred to as Digital Eye Strain
This describes a group of eye and vision-related problems that result from prolonged computer, tablet, e-reader and cell phone use. Many individuals experience eye discomfort and vision problems when viewing digital screens for extended periods. The level of discomfort appears to increase with the amount of digital screen use.

The most common symptoms associated with Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) or Digital Eye Strain are
  • eyestrain
  • tired eyes / fatigue
  • headaches or increased migraines
  • blurred vision
  • dry eyes
  • neck and shoulder pain

These symptoms may be caused by:
  • poor lighting
  • exposure to harmful blue light from a digital screen
  • glare on a digital screen
  • improper viewing distances
  • poor seating posture
  • uncorrected vision problems
  • a combination of these factors
