A Delphi study to develop practical diagnostic guidelines for visual stress (pattern-related visual stress) [PDF]
Purpose: Visual stress (VS) is characterised by symptoms of visual perceptual distortions and eyestrain when viewing text, symptoms that are alleviated by individually prescribed coloured filters.

Visual Attention, Mental Stress and Gender: A Study Using Physiological Signals
The relationship between visual attention and stress is a long-standing question in cognitive science. There are few studies which indicate improvement in visual attention under stress while few other studies suggest that stress affect visual attention ...

Reading through the eyes of a university student: A double-masked randomised placebo-controlled cross-over protocol investigating coloured spectacle lens efficacy in adults with visual stress. [PDF]
BackgroundVisual stress is a reading disorder characterised by perceptual distortions, asthenopia and headache whilst reading, alongside increased sensitivity to repeated striped patterns ('pattern glare'), in the absence of underlying ocular pathology ...

Functional Visual Symptoms, Accommodative Dysfunction, and Visual Performance Alterations in Chronic Work-Related Stress: A Narrative Review [PDF]
Background: Chronic work-related stress, including exposure to mobbing, is associated with a wide range of psychological and somatic consequences. However, its potential impact on visual function, particularly in the absence of structural ocular damage ...

Registered Report: How does art impact pain and stress? Exposure to multimodal art (Music + Visual) and music alone enhances pain tolerance more than visual art, but neither art form impacts autonomic or endocrine markers. [PDF]
While the pain- and stress-reducing effects of music are well investigated, effects of visual art and the combination of both modalities (music and visual art) are much less explored.

Oculometric Function More Strongly Predicts Working Memory than Stress in Military Officers [PDF]
Working memory, the capacity to store information for near-immediate use, and visual attention, the ability to focus on task-relevant information, are integral skills for military personnel. In civilian populations, stress is associated with worse skills.

A mechanistic account of visual discomfort
Much of the neural machinery of the early visual cortex, from the extraction of local orientations to contextual modulations through lateral interactions, is thought to have developed to provide a sparse encoding of contour in natural scenes, allowing ...
