Introduction: Vision disturbance is a silent enemy that only appears after long period of continued stress. In the world it has been nearly 60 million people experience vision problem. Computers have now become basic and essential desktop equipment in almost every establishment. In world it has been estimated that nearly 60 million people experience vision problems as a results computer use. The computer population in India is 20 million plus and 80% of them (16 million) have discomfort due to vision problem. Aim Of the Study: To assess the effectiveness of opthalmic exercises on visual discomfort among the computer workers in administrative department of selected hospital. Methodology: A Quantitative approach was used with quasi experimental non randomized control group design at the selected hospitals. Total 60 computer workers were selected (30 in experimental group and 30 in control group) by using Non probability purposive sampling techniques. Result:. Comparison of mean difference in visual discomfort scores of computer workers from administrative department in experimental and control group was done. Mean difference of experimental group is 40.20 and SD is 1.09. Mean difference of control group 0.06 and SD is 8.69. Mean difference values are compared and student’s unpaired ‘t’ test is applied at 5% level of significance. The tabulated value for n=30+30-2 i.e. 58 degrees of freedom was 2.00. The calculated ‘t’ value is 25.09 are much higher than the tabulated value at 5% level of significance for overall visual discomfort score of computer workers which is statistically acceptable level of significance. The null hypothesis is rejected and H1 is accepted. Hence it is statistically interpreted that the Ophthalmic Exercises on visual discomfort among computer workers was effective. Conclusion: The Ophthalmic Exercises on visual discomfort among computer workers of experimental groups was effective. The ophthalmic Exercises is helpful to reduce the visual discomfort.
