A Hybrid Algorithm for the Prediction of Computer Vision Syndrome in Health Personnel Based on Trees and Evolutionary Algorithms

In the last decades, the use of video display terminals in workplaces has become more and more common. Despite their remarkable advantages, they imply a series of risks for the health of the workers, as they can be responsible for ocular and visual disorders.
