Key Points

  • The aim is to investigate how blink rate and tear volume differ between expert and naïve action video game players and their relation to ocular symptoms.
  • Comparison of blink rate and tear volume between expert AVG and naïve video game (NVG) players.
  • Assessment of ocular symptoms related to prolonged visual tasks.
  • Qualitative analysis of adaptations in visual information processing.
  • Expert players show a significantly altered blink rate compared to naïve players.
  • Changes in tear volume were observed, potentially affecting ocular surface health.
  • Ocular symptoms were reported differently between both groups, suggesting adaptations in visual performance.

Abstract

Expert AVG players demonstrate altered blink behaviour compared with NVG players, possibly reflecting adaptations that minimise visual information loss. These adaptations may influence ocular surface health during prolonged visual tasks. Further research is warranted to clarify the mechanisms underlying these changes.
