It is a condition that impairs vision and may not be improved by corrective lenses. The key factor for visual impairment is near vision. Nearly 10–21% of people report having neck pain at work, which contributes to forward head position and neck pain. <strong>Objective:</strong> This study examined the relationship between visual impairment and neck pain-related complaints brought on by awkward or bad posture among computer users between the ages of 21 and 30. <strong>Methods:</strong> 141 computer users between the ages of 21 and 30 were chosen for a cross-sectional study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Neck Disability questionnaire and the Visual Functioning Questionnaire - Near Activities Subscale (VFQ-NAS) were used, respectively, to evaluate neck discomfort and visual impairment. <strong>Results:</strong> When performed one at a time with each group, and when the whole set of data was considered to correlate each other, there is a correlation between visual and neck-related complaints that provided significant value (P0.05) of the Chi-square. <strong>Conclusions:</strong> It is concluded that there is a strong relationship between visual impairment (nearsightedness) and neck pain.    </p>}, number={8}, journal={Pakistan BioMedical Journal}, author={Shabbir, Saba and Sadaqat, Amina and Wakeel, Maham and Muhammad Arslan, Hafiz Rana}, year={2022}, month={Aug.}, pages={67–71} }
