A web-based survey on various symptoms of computer vision syndrome and the genetic understanding based on a multi-trait genome-wide association study
Abstract A variety of eye-related symptoms due to the overuse of digital devices is collectively referred to as computer vision syndrome (CVS). In this study, a web-based survey about mind and body functions, including eye strain, was conducted on 1998 Japanese volunteers. To investigate the biologi...
