Abstract: The intensive use of computers in office work and its associated stressors, generate mental and physical demands regarding personnel engaged in this activity. This paper aims to assess the most significant psycho-physiological effects induced in a computer company and to identify direct and indirect symptoms of visual stress, perceived by staff working in the video terminals. Also very important are the organizational measures for the diminishing of visual stress that must be implemented by the employers. Finally some simple methods are summarized to reduce visual stress to be reached by every employee.
