Eye fatigue in surgical assistant nurses can be caused by prolonged near vision and exposure to high-intensity surgical light. This study evaluates the relationship between duration of surgery and light intensity with eye fatigue. This research method was cross-sectional, with a population of 44 nurses at Banten Province Regional Hospital, Serang City Regional Hospital, and Dr. Drajat Prawiranegara Regional Hospital. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling method. The instruments are a lux meter and an eye fatigue questionnaire. The prevalence of eye fatigue was 18.2%. The results showed that there was no significant relationship between the duration of surgery and eye fatigue (P=0.6) and there was a significant relationship with light intensity (P=0.06). Light intensity was significantly related to eye fatigue, while duration of surgery was not.
