Posted By graham cleator Having carried out quiet a few DSE assestment recently involving user's of contact lens I have notice a lot complain of sore eyes , more so those who work in air conditioned buildings. Has any body come across this and what solution's are ther other than telling them not to wear them when doing DSE work

Posted By Diane Thomason I agree with Rakesh - they should ask their optician. Contact lens users need to see their optician quite frequently so they have opportunities to ask. I wear contact lenses and use a computer a lot. My optician specifically asked about DSE use and advised me to try to consciously blink more often. Of course the usual DSE advice helps (breaks from DSE work etc.) I use eye drops called Blink (recommended by the optician) and they do help if my eyes feel dry. On a day when my eyes are feeling sore I just wear my glasses instead. However you have to leave the decision to wear contact lenses or not to your employees.
