VERAM, Visual Ergonomics Risk Assessment Method, is a valid, reliable, practical and easy to use risk assessment method for evaluating the visual environment. With this method, the risk factors in the visual environment is detected and interventions can be implemented to reduce the occurrence of symptoms related to poor visual ergonomics among workers in different type of work, not only computer work.A visual environment that causes glare, have to high luminance ratio and/or give too low levels of illuminance can cause eyestrain and musculoskeletal strain for individuals at work. The visual ability and experience of visual blur is significant when the risk for glare is high or the illuminance is insufficient. To increase performance and occupational health, reduce sick leave, a good visual environment is required.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
