Blink rate self-regulation, tear volume and ocular symptoms in expert and naïve action video game players.

Puntos clave

• 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.
