Prevalence of Refractive Error and Effect Factor of Refractive Error

Abstract

This study aims to find out the status of refractive error and the factors affecting refractive error. Data were gathered through a survey of 1, 292 people. The study was conducted only to those who wished to participate in the study. Results showed that the refractive error was refractive error was 926 (71.7%), and the types of refractive error in subjects were 533 (57.6%) for myopia, 144 (15.6%) for hyperopia, 7 (0.8%) for astigmatism, and 242 (26.1%) for myopia astigmatism. Age (r=0.000, p<0.05) and refractive error were found to be related, and the vision status of the father (r=0.03, p<0.05) and the mother (r=0.000, p<0.05) was also found to be related to refractive error. Based on the findings, good life learning habits and proper work and rest balance are believed to reduce eye stress and relieve eye fatigue, which can later stabilize refractive errors.
