    Area of Science:

    • Occupational health
    • Ergonomics
    • Ophthalmology

    Context:

    • Video Display Terminal (VDT) work is prevalent, posing risks to worker visual health and performance.
    • Assessing the impact of VDT use on visual physiological functions is crucial for workplace well-being.
    • Understanding the relationship between VDT work, visual strain, and productivity is essential for optimizing work environments.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate working adaptation in VDT workers by evaluating visual physiological functions and their relation to performance.
    • To identify objective indicators of eye strain and their correlation with improved working conditions.
    • To explore methods for enhancing display design and work management strategies based on visual function analysis.

    Summary:

    • Eye strain from VDT work objectively manifests as accommodative and convergent depression, alongside reduced tear production, highlighting the need for better working conditions.
