    What is Computer Vision Syndrome?

    Understanding About

    Computer Vision Syndrome

    Computer Vision Syndromes are becoming a major public health concern, less emphasis is given to them, particularly in developing countries.

    Computer Vision Syndrome results from prolonged digital device use, causing symptoms like blurred vision, eye strain, dry eyes, and headaches. Its prevalence is increasing, especially among children, due to excessive screen time. Contributing factors include poor posture and improper workstation setup. 

    CVS impacts productivity, health, and sleep patterns but is often overlooked, particularly in developing countries. Addressing personal and environmental factors is essential for prevention and management, recognizing CVS as a significant public health concern in today’s digital age.

    Pseudoesotropia makes the eyes seem inward due to factors like a prominent epicanthal fold, while pseudoexotropia makes them appear outward due to factors like hypertelorism.

    Anatomical causes such as orbital asymmetry and physiological causes like esophoria (inward deviation) in hyperopes and exophoria (outward deviation) in myopes. Decompensation causes, like psychiatric disorders and aging, can also play a role.

Incomitant squint, on the other hand, involves neurogenic causes like cranial nerve abnormalities, myogenic causes such as muscle lesions, and neuromuscular junction disorders like myasthenia gravis.
