ABSTRACT
CVS prevalence was found to be 76.9%. Females had higher odds of CVS (OR = 1.834, p = 0.028). Each one-unit increase in screen time was associated with higher odds of CVS (OR = 1.340, p = 0.030). Each one-unit increase in screen distance was associated with higher odds of CVS (OR = 2.153, p = 0.004). Each one-unit increase in room illumination was associated with lower odds of CVS (OR = 0.555, p = 0.015). Those who used at least one protective measure had lower odds of CVS (OR = 0.403, p = 0.006). There was no statistically significant relationship between CVS and academic year, screen brightness, or posture.
These findings highlight the need for spreading awareness and promoting targeted interventions to improve eye health.
