Resumen |
Report on a work physiology study investigating symptoms reported by people working at computer terminals (headache and soreness of eyes, flickering vision, loss of visual acuity and disturbance of colour perception). Analysis of these disorders in the light of earlier studies and description of the apparatus used and the study design. Work on computer terminals, especially when prolonged, produces functional disturbances of the optic system and the symptoms referred to, but none of these are permanent. Such effects are considered to have a physiological, not a pathological, basis, but they do show the existence of unusual stresses. It is recommended that continuous periods of work be shortened and that breaks be intercalated during work at cathode-ray screens. |
