Abstract


ntroduction: The use of computers is increasing these days. The use of computer cause
serious eye complaints in the form of Computer vision syndrome (CVS) symptoms. CVS is a
disease associated with symptoms of watery eyes, blurred vision, eye redness, eye strain, etc.
Consequences of these symptoms can reduce working productivity or efficiency. Allegedly
one of the factors that trigger CVS symptoms is the duration of computer’s light exposure.
Purpose: To determined whether there is association between duration of computer light
exposure with Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS)’s incidence in employees who use
computers.
Method: This study was an observational analytic study with cross-sectional design. The
sampling method used was purposive sampling. The total sample in this study was 85 people.
The duration of light exposure was measured by interview while the CVS was measured
using the CVS-q questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS program with
chi-square test.
Results:The results of this study found that people who work more than 4 hours were more
likely to experienced symptoms of CVS compared to people who work less than 4 hours. The
results showed that there was a significant association between the duration of computer light
exposure with computer vision syndrome (CVS) incidences in employees who are using
computers.
Conclusion: There was an association between the duration of computer light exposure with
computer vision syndrome (CVS) incidences in employees that using computers
