What
is it?
Computer
Vision Syndrome (CVS) is the result of being exposed to a computer
screen for too long. The majority of people who use computers
day-to-day have experienced some sort of this syndrome.
What
causes it?
Being in
front of a video screen for long hours can easily cause CVS. Those
affected by this syndrome are growing rapidly as more and more people
today rely on computers for work and personal use. Whatever the case
is, the eyes become strained and measures must be taken
to help reduce the pressure on the eyes.
