New Report Reveals Employee Eye Issues are Surging
According to the VSP® Vision Care 2026 Workplace Vision Health Report, two out of three employees have at least one eye issue.*
This is the third straight year employee eye issues have increased—and nearly half of all workers surveyed say their job plays a part.
The third annual report features direct feedback from HR leaders and employees on the following factors contributing to this downward trend:
• Employee screen time reaching nearly 100 hours per week
• Seasonal eye discomfort affecting workers year-round
• Workplace impacts affecting 48% of all employees
• Online misinformation resulting in worsening conditions
• Unused vision benefits preventing identification and treatment of issues
Explore the insights behind each of these issues and how you can use them to create an eye-friendly workplace that empowers success.
