Background: The literature examining the effects of workstation, eyewear and behavioral
interventions on musculoskeletal and visual symptoms among computer users is large
and heterogeneous. Methods: A systematic review of the literature used a best evidence synthesis
approach to address the general question “Do office interventions among computer users
have an effect on musculoskeletal or visual health?” This was followed by an evaluation of
specific interventions. Results: The initial search identified 7313 articles which were reduced to
31 studies based on content and quality. Overall, a mixed level of evidence was observed for the
general question. Moderate evidence was observed for: (1) no effect of workstation adjustment,
(2) no effect of rest breaks and exercise and (3) positive effect of alternative pointing devices.
