Effect of Smartphone activity over convergence insufficiency score before sleep
Journal Title: Journal of PeerScientist - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
To investigate the effect of Smartphone usage over convergence insufficiency among participants before one hour of sleep. This CISS study was conducted in One hundred (52 male and 48 female) participants with the mean age group 23.0±2.964. It includes two stages pre and post convergence insufficiency survey (CISS) questionnaire. Participants who use smart phone more than one hour before going to sleep were asked to take this survey, this study was executed tenure to declaration of Helsinki followed by verbal and written consent from the participants with a convenient sampling was used to recruit the participants. The comparison between pre and post exposure with CISS score shows an evident significance (p<0.001) followed by association between Gender and CISS score for post experiment which showed no statistical significance (p=0.195). But interestingly, in post experiment evident trend significance (p < 0.048) found between the age and ciss score among the Smartphone users before going to sleep. Similarly the correlation between the age and CISS score showed weak positive correlation (r=+0.108) and no statistical significance (p=0.285) for pre experiment. A negative correlation was observed (-0.274) and statistically no significance (p=0.792) found between the age and CISS score in smart phone users before going to sleep. We found that Smartphone activity before going to sleep lead to convergence insufficiency, ocular fatigue and eye strain. The relation between Smartphone usages one hour before going to sleep is strongly associated with CISS score.
