SESSION TIMES AND VENUES:
To be Advised
The majority of people have the mistaken belief that working
with Visual Display Terminals for long periods of time will
in some way permanently affect their eyesight. This belief
is not true, and whilst it is not possible to permanently
affect the eyes many people experience some form of visual
discomfort when working with Visual Display Terminals.
This session will give staff an understanding of how their
eyes function and the associated visual problems that occur
with Visual Display Terminals.
