Abstract:BACKGROUND: The contrast between a bright computer screen and a dark ambient environment may influence comfort of the users, especially on their eyes. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this research is to identify the optimal desktop lighting for the comfortable use of the computer screen in a dark environment. METHODS: An experiment was designed where seven illumination setups were introduced for the users to perform their leisure tasks on a computer screen. Fifteen healthy subjects participated in the experiments.… Show more
“…To sum up, in a short reading time of about 20 minutes, the visit time and frequency changed, the number and time of xation decreased, the unknown saccade increased, and the reading speed slowed down. Compared with studies on longer visual tasks reported over recent years [12,15],this study further found that the eye movement parameters signi cantly changed over a short period. As in such a relatively short period of time, asthenopia may not rise so signi cantly to be detected by the subject; this proves the potential of eye-tracking technology for sensitive assessment of asthenopia.…”

“…In addition, when healthy people are driving, their eye movements, such as saccade speed, may signi cantly change with the emergence of mental or physical fatigue [10][11]. While a limited number of studies on the association of asthenopia and eye movement have been reported in recent years [12][13][14][15], the e cacy of eye movement for the objective assessment of asthenopia needs to be further examined.…”

Purpose: To analyze the correlation between eye movements and asthenopia so as to explore the possibility of using eye-tracking techniques for objective assessment of asthenopia.Methods: This prospective observational study used the computer visual syndrome questionnaire to assess the severity of asthenopia in 93 enrolled college students who complained about asthenopia. Binocular accommodation and eye movements during the reading task were also examined. The correlations between the questionnaire score and accommodation examination results and eye movements parameters were analyzed. Differences in eye movement parameters between the first and last reading paragraphs were compared. The trends in eye movement changes over time were observed. Results: About 81.7% subjects suffered from computer visual syndrome.The computer visual syndrome questionnaire total score was positively correlated with positive relative accommodation (P<.05). In the first reading paragraph, a double vision was positively correlated with the unknown saccades (all P<.05). Difficulty focusing at close range was positively correlated with total fixation duration, total visit duration, and reading speed (all P<.05). Feeling that sight was worsening was positively correlated with the regressive saccades (P<.05). However, visual impairment symptoms were not significantly correlated with any accommodative function. In a total of 20-minute reading, significantly reduced eye movement parameters were: total fixation duration, fixation count, total visit duration, visit count, fixation duration mean, and reading speed (all P<.01). The eye movement parameters that were significantly increased were: visit duration mean and unknown saccades (all P<.001).Conclusion: Eye tracking could be used as an effective assessment for asthenopia.

Purpose: To analyze the correlation between eye movements and asthenopia so as to explore the possibility of using eye-tracking techniques for objective assessment of asthenopia. Methods: This prospective observational study used the computer visual syndrome questionnaire to assess the severity of asthenopia in 93 enrolled college students (age 20–30) who complained about asthenopia. Binocular accommodation and eye movements during the reading task were also examined. The correlations between questionnaire score and accommodation examination results and eye movement parameters were analyzed. Differences in eye movement parameters between the first and last reading paragraphs were compared. The trends in eye movement changes over time were observed. Results: About 81.7% of the subjects suffered from computer visual syndrome. Computer visual syndrome questionnaire total score was positively correlated with positive relative accommodation (p < 0.05). In the first reading paragraph, double vision was positively correlated with unknown saccades (all p < 0.05). Difficulty focusing at close range was positively correlated with total fixation duration, total visit duration, and reading speed (all p < 0.05). Feeling that sight was worsening was positively correlated with regressive saccades (p < 0.05). However, visual impairment symptoms were not significantly correlated with any accommodative function. In a total 20 min reading, significantly reduced eye movement parameters were: total fixation duration, fixation count, total visit duration, visit count, fixation duration mean, and reading speed (all p < 0.01). The eye movement parameters that were significantly increased were: visit duration mean and unknown saccades (all p < 0.001). Conclusion: Eye tracking could be used as an effective assessment for asthenopia. Among the various eye movement parameters, a decrease in fixation duration and counts may be one of the potential indicators related to asthenopia.
