Abstract

This paper examines the effects on the operator's visual and nervous system when viewing images with a blue tint or color for extended periods of time. Possible adverse effects on the user and their impact over time are analysed. The paper publishes the results of studies of a group of trainees using a filter or specific type of software to reduce the use of blue color when performing the same task for a given time interval with and without rest. An analysis is made of the inconveniences introduced by the restriction imposed, the limits to which they are tolerable or negligible, and the difference with the traditional way of using computer systems with limited continuous time of operators. The impact of ill-health, effects on the nervous system, operator endurance and performance are described. The report concludes by listing the types of tasks and corresponding occupations where the introduction of software restricting the use of the colour blue can improve workflow while preserving employee health.
