Health risks
Workplaces with microscopes facilitate and
improve the viewing task, but they also impose
high demands on the eyes and holding muscles
of the user. Depending on the duration of unin-
terrupted work, asthenopia and musculoskele-
tal problems may occur. For this reason, appro-
priate measures for reduction of the workload
must be taken:
OOptimal arrangement of workplace, work
assignments and work flow (changing tasks
frequently).
OThorough training of the personnel, giving
consideration to ergonomic and organizati-
onal aspects.
The ergonomic optical design and construction
of Leica microscopes are intended to reduce the
exertion of the user to a minimum.
