    Summary

    Visual strain in workers can cause a syndrome with vision problems and eye discomfort. This condition affects both young and old individuals, leading to changes in vision and reduced focusing ability.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Occupational Health

    Background:

    • Workers performing tasks with visual strain may develop a specific syndrome.
    • Symptoms include impaired visual control and orbital discomfort.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a syndrome associated with visual strain in occupational settings.
    • To detail the characteristic changes in refraction and accommodation associated with this syndrome.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical observation and diagnosis of affected workers.
    • Analysis of refractive and accommodative changes in relation to age and visual tasks.

    Main Results:

    • The syndrome presents with visual control issues and orbital discomfort.
    • Young individuals (emmetropia, myopia) show increased refraction; elderly individuals show decreased refraction and early presbyopia.
    • A significant decrease in accommodation was observed in all affected individuals.

    Conclusions:

    • Visual strain can lead to a distinct occupational syndrome affecting vision.
    • The syndrome impacts refraction and accommodation differently based on age.
    • Further research into the pathogenesis of this visual strain syndrome is suggested.
