DOES VISUAL DISCOMFORT HAVE AN INFLUENCE ON MUSCLE PAIN FOR VISUAL DISPLAY UNIT (VDU) WORKERS?

摘要：

In order to study more in detail the relationship between visual condition and visual discomfort as well as correlation between visual discomfort and muscle pain, four different prospective epidemiological studies were carried out. In these studies, correlations between glare and visual discomfort were 0.35< rs<0.51, 0.026<p<0.04. Correlations between visual discomfort and average pain intensity in the neck and shoulder, were 0.30<r<0.72 for VDU workers. In the first study, correlation between visual discomfort and pain in the neck and shoulder was 0.30<r<0.40.In the second study, visual discomfort correlated to neck pain (r=0.40, p=0.003). In the third study, correlation were for neck pain (r=0.69, p=0.000) and shoulder pain (r=0.72, p=0.000). In the fourth study, the correlation for neck pain was (r=0.44, p=0.038).
