Work with magnifying glasses / Helmut Krueger, Peter Conrady and Jörn Zülch

Sumario: At workplaces with optical aids workers complain more often from visual and musculo-skeletal disorders compared to those working in offices. These complaints concern more often workers using magnifying glasses than those using stereo-microscopes. Bad working-postures at worplaces with loupes and the worse optical quality of todays loupes are two causes. The results of this study suggest use of eye-glasses for near-vision in addition to loupes
