Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the knowledge and practice of computer users about computer related eye problems. Methods: One hundred twenty-three computer users were asked to complete a questionnaire. In each questionnaire, after initial demographic questions, 9 questions were conducted to evaluate the knowledge of the users and 9 questions to assess their attitude about the COMPUTER VISION SYNDROME (CVS). Results: Sixty-nine women and 54 men with mean age of 31.3±7.1 years were studied. All of the users had daily computer work of more than 1 hour and 70 users (56.2%) had more than 3 hours of daily computer work. The correct responses ranged from 7.6% to 78.5% for knowledge questions, and from 25.3% to 76% for practice questions. In 1 knowledge question (proper contrast and brightness) and 2 practice questions (contrast and brightness adjustment and maximum working time without rest), more than 50% of the users responded correctly. The lowest correct responses were the optimum room light (7.6%) in the knowledge section and ocular examinations (25.3%) in the practice section. Twenty-eight users (22.8%) said they had read about the CVS in scientific sources, however, only 2 (7.1%) knew all signs and symptoms of CVS. No user correctly responded to all questions about the appropriate approach to CVS.Conclusion: The level of knowledge of the studied population about the CVS was limited. Proper use of the present knowledge was low as well.
