Abstract

Çocukların davranışları farklı nesiller boyunca teknolojik ve sosyal gelişimlerden etkilenerek değişti. Koronavirüs pandemisi 2019 tarihinde ortaya çıkan virüs salgını ile birlikte bütün dünyaya yayıldı. Salgınla mücadele kapsamında gerek çalışma gerekse de eğitim ve öğretim şartları ciddi değişliklere uğradı. Uzaktan eğitimler ve ev ofis tarzında uzaktan çalışma tüm dünyada pandemi izolasyonu kapsamında uygulanmaya başladı. Bu durum akıllı telefon, bilgisayar, tablet ve diğer ekranlı araç kullanımını doğrudan yaşam tarzı haline getirerek, ekranlı dijital araçları hayatımızın ayrılmaz bir parçası olmasına sebep oldu. Bu yeni durum çocuk ve ergenlerde yeni bir kuşak olan ve C kuşağı (Covid) olarak da adlandırılabilecek dijital ekran alışkanlıkları ve yaşam farklılıkları önemli ölçüde değişen bir neslin yetişmesine yol açtı. 2019 dan itibaren C kuşağı olarak adlandırılabilecek çocuklar dünya ile iletişimlerini dijital bir ekran vasıtası ile yapar ve tanır hale geldiler. Böylece günümüz çocukları dijital akıllı cihazlarla çevrili bir dünyada büyüyorlar. Yaşamın temel bir parçası haline gelen akıllı telefonlar, televizyonlar, tabletler veya bilgisayarlar günlük yaşamlarında, evde ve okulda olduğu kadar ofis dışında da rutin kullanılan araçlar olarak hayatımızda yer aldı. Ekranlı dijital cihaz kullanım alışkanlıklarının değişmesi de beraberinde özellikle göz sağlığının ciddi oranda etkilenmesi sonucunu doğurdu. Bu araştırmada dijital ekranların göz sağlığı ve görme bozuklukları üzerine etkilerine yönelik bir alanyazın incelemesinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda doküman inceleme yöntemi ile bu konudaki bilimsel veriler incelenerek sentezlenmiş, günümüz dijital çağda alınabilecek koruyucu önlemler ve yenilikler ele alınmıştır.

A Literature Review on C (Covid) Generation, Screen Devices and Eye Health

Abstract

Children’s behavior has changed over different generations due to the influence of technological and social developments. The COVID-19 pandemic or coronavirus pandemic has spread all over the world with the virus outbreak that emerged in Wuhan, the capital of the Hubei region of China, on December 1, 2019. During the fight against the epidemic, both working and education conditions have undergone serious changes. Within the scope of pandemic isolation, distance education and home-office style remote working have started to be implemented all over the world. This situation has made the use of smartphones, computers, tablets and other screen devices directly into a lifestyle, and thus screened digital tools have become an integral part of our lives. This new situation has led to the growth of a new generation of children and adoles-cents, which can be called the C generation (Covid), whose digital screen habits and life differences have changed significantly. As of 2019, children who can be called C generation communicate with the world through a digital screen and become familiar with it. Thus, today's children are growing up in a world surrounded by digital smart devices. Smartphones, televisions, tablets or computers, which have become a fundamental part of daily life, have taken place in our lives as tools that are routinely used at home, school and office. The change in the usage habits of screened digital devices has resulted in a serious impact particularly on eye health. In this study, it is aimed to review the literature on the effects of digital screens on eye health and visual disorders. In this direction, the scientific data on this subject have been analyzed and synthesized with the document analysis method and the protective measures and innovations that can be taken in today’s digital age are discussed.
