Description

Sengo and six co-authors study eye strain from screens in Mozambique, in work from twenty twenty-three. Computer vision syndrome is a set of eye and vision problems tied to screen use. Screen use surged for students and teachers during the pandemic.

The team surveyed students and teachers at a university in Nampula in late twenty twenty and early twenty twenty-one. They used a tested eye strain survey plus questions on desk setup and habits. More than three in four people met the mark for the syndrome in their results. Odds tests linked risk to certain work conditions. The study gives local proof for eye health steps in schools.
