초록

목적: 본 연구는 스마트폰과 모니터 영상을 짧은 기간 동안 시청한 이후 근거리 사위와 폭주근점의 변화를 비교하였다. 방법: 20~30대(평균나이 $21.84{\pm}5.14$세)의 안질환이 없고 건강한 눈을 가진 50명을 실험 대상자로 하였다. 시청 시간은 5~20분으로, 회복 시간은 10분으로 구성하였다. 근거리 사위와 폭주근점은 스마트폰과 모니터의 시청 전후로 검사하였고, 시각적 피로도에 의한 자각증상은 영상 시청 전후 설문지로 조사하였다. 결과: 스마트폰 영상시청에서 나타난 외사위 경향은 모니터보다 큰 것으로 나타났고, 이러한 외사위의 변화는 10분 후 회복하였다. 스마트폰 시청 이후 나타난 폭주근점은 모니터에서보다 멀어지는 경향을 보였으며, 스마트폰은 모니터보다 더 많은 시각적 피로를 유발하였다. 결론: 지속적인 스마트폰의 작업은 사위 및 폭주근점의 변화를 초래하였고, 이러한 유형의 스트레스로 시각적 피로를 초래할 수 있다. 그러므로 적절한 휴식은 시각적 피로의 회복에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: This study was to compare changes in near lateral phoria and near point of convergence after viewing smartphones and monitors during short periods. Methods: 50 subjects with healthy eyes from 20s to 30s (mean age, $21.84{\pm}5.13$ years) were examined. Viewing time was set at 5 min to 20 min, and recovery time was 10 min. Near lateral phoria and near point of convergence (NPC) were examined before and after watching smartphones and monitors, and subjectively symptoms for visual fatigue were surveyed using a questionnaire before and after viewing image. Results: The tendency of phoria in viewing smartpones found more exophoric results than in viewing monitors, and both exophoric shifts were recovered after 10 min. The receded NPC in the smartphones was more remote than in the monitors. The smartpones induced more visual fatigue than the monitors. Conclusions: Sustained smartphone works induced changes in phoria and NPC, and this type of stress could cause visual fatigue. Therefore, an appropriate rest breaks can be helpful in relieving visual fatigue.
