As digital technologies continue to reshape the way people work, learn, and interact, the need for evidence-based approaches to visual wellbeing has never been greater.
Digital Vision Health Standards is an ongoing initiative dedicated to developing practical frameworks, guidelines, and best practices that support healthier relationships between people and digital environments.
Our goal is to help organizations, professionals, researchers, and technology leaders better understand, measure, and improve visual wellbeing in the digital age.
Why Standards Matter
What gets measured gets improved.
While organizations increasingly adopt standards related to cybersecurity, ergonomics, mental wellbeing, and workplace safety, visual wellbeing often remains overlooked despite its critical role in daily digital activities.
Digital Vision Health Standards aims to help close this gap by encouraging structured, measurable, and evidence-informed approaches to visual health.
Areas of Focus
The framework currently explores standards and recommendations related to:
Guiding Principles
Our work is guided by the following principles:
Evidence-Informed
Recommendations should be grounded in scientific evidence, emerging research, and practical experience.
Human-Centered
Technology should support human wellbeing rather than compromise it.
Preventive by Design
Early identification and prevention are essential to maintaining long-term visual health.
Measurable
Visual wellbeing should be assessed using meaningful and actionable indicators whenever possible.
Collaborative
Advancing Digital Vision Health requires collaboration across healthcare, technology, academia, industry, and public health.
The Future of Standards
Digital Vision Health Standards is an evolving framework.
As research advances and digital environments continue to change, these standards will grow through collaboration, scientific inquiry, and real-world implementation.
We invite researchers, healthcare professionals, organizations, and innovators to contribute to the development of a healthier digital future—one where visual wellbeing is recognized as a core component of digital health.
