Understanding the issue

Office Eye Syndrome — the hidden workplace condition.

Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) describes a group of vision and eye problems caused by prolonged screen use. The symptoms are real — the cause is rarely recognised.

Blurred vision

Deteriorating visual sharpness, especially in the afternoon — a classic warning sign.

Eye fatigue

Heavy, burning or irritated eyes after prolonged focus on a screen.

Headaches

Tension headaches triggered by blue light exposure and display flicker.

Dry eyes

Dryness and irritation caused by a reduced frequency of blinking – up to 60% for screen work.

Neck & shoulder pain

Postural strain that compounds overall discomfort caused by poor screen positioning.

Loss of concentration

Reduced cognition performance as a result of visual system under sustained stress.

Quick self-test

Am I affected?

Take a look and select an answer for the following 6 questions. If you answer yes to 3 or more, we recommend reviewing your workstation setup.

1–2 yes

Low risk

3–4 yes

Elevated risk

5–6 yes

High risk — act now

My eyes often feel tired or burning by the end of the day. I regularly get headaches during or after work. My vision becomes blurry after long periods at a screen. I work at a screen for more than 5 hours a day. My monitor has no dedicated eye comfort features. I rarely take conscious breaks from my screen during the working day.
