摘要

Previous studies have suggested that medical students may be at considerable risk for Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), partly because of the increasing amount of online content delivery via computer interface. This study used validated surveys to examine the prevalence of CVS in medical students and its relationship with fatigue and sleep impairments. Survey data showed that 83.1% of medical students exhibited a CVS score of 6 or above, suggesting they suffer from CVS, 57.3% of students scored above five on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), indicating poor sleep quality, and 56.7% scored 36 or higher on the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), indicating significant fatigue. Data also showed that the CVS, PSQI, and FSS survey measures were correlated (p < 0.001) with each other. These results suggest that CVS in medical students may be related to poor sleep quality and fatigue.
