EYE DEAR: Smartphone Text Resizing Interaction for the Eye Health of the Presbyopia Population

Published: 20 October 2017 Publication History

Abstract

Presbyopia is a symptom in which the elasticity of the lens is weakened and the image is not formed. However, as the use of smart phones increases, the age at which presbyopia symptoms appear is gradually decreasing. The closer the distance is from the smartphone, the less the focus of the eyes will be which making the letters and pictures on the smartphone screen appear blurred. In this study, we conducted a study on the interactions that helped to improve health of eye for people with presbyopia or those who have a habit that can facilitating presbyopia. As the distance of the smartphone from the eye is increased, the font size is increased to upgrading readability and the prototype is tested by 20 experimenters.
