ergonomic mouse
Contoured hand peripheral
An ergonomic mouse is a computer mouse designed to reduce strain on the hand, wrist, and arm during extended use.
These mice typically feature vertical orientations, contoured grips, or trackball mechanisms that promote more natural hand positions: I switched to an ergonomic mouse after developing wrist pain.
The design aims to prevent repetitive strain injuries.
