The objective of this research was to analyze the computer visual syndrome (CVS) in Peruvian basic education teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The approach was quantitative, the non-experimental design and the transectional descriptive type. The sample was made up of 238 teachers from the initial, primary and secondary levels who worked in the city of Cusco to whom the Computer Visual Syndrome Questionnaire (CVS-Q) was applied, an instrument with adequate levels of reliability and validity. The results indicate that teachers are characterized by high levels of CVS, mainly characterized by burning eyes, tearing, itching, eye redness and heaviness in the eyelids. On the other hand, it was determined that the CVS levels were significantly associated with the age group, the time connected to the devices, as well as the development of preventive strategies by teachers. Therefore, it is imperative that preventive strategies are applied, such as the 20-20-20 rule, and ergonomic conditions are improved, such as the use of adequate seats, anti-glare screens and the brightness adjustment of the same.
