Etiology1. Computer user :
- Not ergonomic body position- Eye disorder

Signs & SymptomsEmployees suffering from CVS experience such
as :HeadachesEyestrainItchy eyesTired eyes (asthenopia)Blurred vision Double visionFatigueand Tense muscles (e.g neck and shoulder
pain)

Extreme CVS can even cause :NauseaPoor nutrition and loss of appetiteMigrainesand Cluster headaches

PathofisiologyCaused by decreased blinking reflex while
working long hours focusing on computer screens.
The normal blink rate in human eyes is 16–20 per minute.
Studies have shown that the blink rate decreases to as low as 6–8 blinks/minute for persons working on the computer screen.
This leads to dry eyes

The near focusing effort required for such long hours puts strain on ciliary muscles of the eye will induces :
symptoms of asthenopiaa feeling of tiredness in the eyes after long
hours of work.

Intervensive the risk factor
Ergonomic body position
The angle of the eyes to computer screen arrange twenty degrees, it will reduce the risk for asthenopia. And then, the arm position to keyboard, leg position to chair, whole body position to chair and computer table will affect the good ergonomic position.

Therapy & Perevention (cont’d)Good lighting
Light reflected from the lamp must be indirect, it means for reduce unsuitable light that cause photophobic. The ideal window position is from the side of the computer, it porpose to make the screen not be impacted light from the window.

TreatmentMedication
Medical therapy for dry :Topical lubricantsCyclosporine A ophthalmic emulsionPunctal occlusion
Surgical CareSurgical indications used for patients with dry
eye syndrome are also used for patients with CVS. Some patients may benefit from punctal plug insertion.

ComplicationSimilar to those in patients with dry eye, including :

ConclusionComputer vision syndrome (CVS) occur when
we use computer for long times.
The symptom will affect all of the body and it also affect productivity to work.
There are many methods to prevent and treat CVS, such as change of habbit when using computer or intervensive the instrument of computer and the environment where we work.
