The Visual Computer Syndrome Questionnaire (CVS-Q) allowed to identify asthenopia. Chi Squaare Test, U Mann Whitney and prevalence ratio allowed us to identify the factors associated with asthenopia.

The administrative job position (p <0.001), the taking of short breaks (p=0.023), the inadequate level of illumination of the work environment (p <0.001), the inadequate distance in front of the DDS (p <0.001), the extensive working time in the current area (p <0.001), the high number of daily hours in front of the DDS (p <0.001), age (p <0.001), feemale seex (p = 0.001) and myopia (p = 0.011) weere factors assoociated wiith asthenopia.
