“…The results of the bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between the use of glasses and non-glasses users on the incidence of CVS. These results are in accordance with the research of Edema et al who reported a significant difference between VDT users who wore glasses and VDT users who did not wear glasses in the incidence of asthenopia [15]. Reddy SC also found a significantly higher incidence of CVS in students who wore glasses compared to those who did not wear glasses [16].…”

“…of equal to five hours a day [18]. Study by Edema et al found that 53.15% of respondents used computers continuously for four hours causing them to be more at risk of experiencing stress due to computer use [15]. In another study showed that the prevalence of visual symptoms was higher in that spend more than 4 hours on VDT [19] Different results were obtained in the study by Assefa et al, namely there was no significant difference in the occurrence of CVS between working in front of the computer less than or equal to 6 hours by working in front of the computer more than 6 hours [12].…”

The use of computer for a long time period can cause a ocular complaints called Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). This syndrome can be influenced by various risk factors, such as individual factors, computer factors and environmental factor. This study is to identify and analyze individual, computer and environmental factors associated with the incidence of Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). This research is an observational study with a case control method. The study was conducted in September-October 2018 at General hospital Haji Surabaya. A sample of 266 people with certain criteria, divided into 2 groups of cases and controls. The research was conducted by direct interview using a questionnaire. The statistical test uses the Chi square test. The odds ratio used to determine the value of the association of the magnitude of the risk and multivariate analysis (logistic regression analysis) is used to find out which risk factor is the most influential. The 95% confidence interval and the results of the case-control study observations are arranged in a 2×2 table. The factors that were significantly associated with the incidence of CVS were gender [p = 0.009; odd ratio = 0.504 (95% CI = 0.301 – 0.843)], use of glasses [p = 0.000; odds ratio = 0.333 (95% CI = 0.201 – 0.553)], duration of working hours on the computer [p = 0.000; odds ratio = 0.331 (95% CI = 0.194 – 0.563)] and computer vision distance [p = 0.000; odds ratio = 0.331 (95% CI = 0.194 – 0.563)].

“…These symptoms can be further aggravated by improper lighting conditions, wrong posture or wrong distance. [8][9][10] There are few Asian studies which reported risk factors associated with CVS. A Sri Lankan study reported that the risk factors as pre-existing eye disease, female gender, higher daily computer usage, longer duration of occupation, not using a visual display terminal (VDT) filter, use of contact lenses, etc; among these duration of occupation and presence of pre-existing eye disease is associated with severity of CVS.…”

In today’s world computers are ubiquitous and found in different forms which can effect intraocular pressure (IOP). Present study was undertaken to find out effect of day-to-day exposure to computer screen on IOP in normal individuals. 70 individuals (who met the screening conditions and devoid of obvious ocular pathology and systemic diseases) had their IOP’s checked before and 4 hour after computer session on same day, all working in general day shift, involving reading English printed material. The results showed significant (p<0.005) increase with IOP values before exposure being 17.89±3.25 and 16.99±2.84 and after exposure being 19.67±3.4 and 18.70±2.4 in left and right eye respectively. Increase in IOP was noted in 70% and 67% individuals in left and right eye. Differences in IOP of right and left eye may be due to dominance of eye or direction of script from left to right.

“…Sebuah study menunjukkan responden yang menggunakan komputer lebih empat jam berisiko lebih tinggi mengalami stres. 27 Hal ini berkaitan dengan frekuensi berkedip yang menurun secara bermakna akibat penglihatan yang dituntut berkonsentrasi pada tugas menyebabkan rotasi mata terbatas. selain itu faktor internal perangkat media elektronik yang terdiri dari jutaan pixel, warna yang kontras, serta ukuran tulisan yang kecil juga berpengaruh terhadap frekuensi bekedip, sehingga mata cenderung terasa perih dan tegang.…”

Abstrak Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) merupakan ciri kumpulan gejala visual sebagai akibat interaksi dengan media elektronik seperti komputer, tablet, dan gadget. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi efektivitas dari akupresur mata terhadap gejala Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). Jenis penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan desain eksperimental. Sampel dari penelitian adalah mahasiswa Fakultas Keperawatan Universitas Riau yang berada pada usia remaja akhir sebanyak 83 responden terbagi dalam kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol melalui serangkaian pretest dan posttest sesuai dengan kriteria inklusi. Pemilihan sampel dilakukan menggunakan metode Stratified randomized sampling. Analisis statistik yang digunakan adalah Wilcoxon dan Mann Whitney. Penilaian yang dilakukan menunjukan bahwa skor CVS mengalami penurunan yang signifikan pada kelompok eksperimental setelah dilakukan intervensi akupresur mata dengan p value (0,000) < α (0.05). Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa akupresur mata dapat menurunkan gejala CVS. Maka dari itu akupresur mata dapat direkomendasikan sebagai alternatif dalam terapi komplementer untuk penderita gejala CVS. Kata Kunci: akupresur mata, computer vision syndrome, remaja akhir Abstract Eyes Acupressure Therapy of Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) in Student. Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) is characterized by visual symptoms which is resulted from interaction with electronic media such as computers, tablets, and gadgets. This study aims to identify the effectiveness of eye acupressure on the symptoms of Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). The type of this research is quantitative with an experimental design. The sample of this study was students of nursing Faculty University of Riau who were at the age of late adolescent as many as 83 respondents which were divided into a control and experimental group through pretest and posttest based on the inclusion criteria. The sample were selected by using stratified randomized sampling method. The analysis statistic used Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney. The assessment obtained through the CVS score were decrease significantly in the experimental group after eyes acupressure treatment with p-value (0,000) < α (0.05). It can be concluded that eyes acupressure can reduce the symptom of CVS. Therefore eyes acupressure can be recommended as an alternative in complementary therapies for clients with CVS symptoms.
