Aim of the study: To evaluate influence of work with computer on pupils health and ergonomical conditions at their workplaces. Material and methods: Data has been collected by questionnaire testing of 402 pupils at Kaunas and Kretinga secondary schools. Research data were analyzed using program SPSS 11.0 for Windows. Results: Working with computer, 30.3% of pupils feel pain in eyes, 30.1% suffer from reduced vision. Pupils feel uncomfortable because of glare and flicker of display. Children who feel display flicker and discomfort for indirect glare more often complain for visual problems. Children often working with computer in the dark environment more often are feeling redness in eyes. Workplaces at home are equipped better than at school (p<0.05). At home workplaces surfaces of the computer table are large and convenient, height of table and chair is regulated, the chair has back and elbow-rests, the angle of the chair back is regulated. Using of additional ergonomic equipment isn’t typical. Working with computer pupils feels pain in the neck and shoulders (42.5%), in wrists (25.4%) and back (27.4%). Pain in wrists, back and neck-shoulders is rare for pupils with properly equipped workplaces (p>0.05). Children that have elbow-rests more often feel pain in back (p<0.05). Boys feel pains in wrists, girls – pains in back and neck-shoulders more often. Children playing violent games more often had conflicts with their friends (p>0.05). Conclusions: 1.
