Abstract

This study was done to compare REFRACTIVE ERRORS, along with probable risk factors between carpet weavers and blue-collar workers.Methods: This was a historical cohort study, in which 188 carpet weavers (with a past history of prolonged NEAR WORK) and 131 blue-collar workers (without any previous record of NEAR WORK) were randomly selected. They underwent refraction (dry and cycloplegic), keratometry and biometry.Results: Mean cycloplegic refractive error was more negative in carpet weavers and blue collar workers (p<0.05) and the prevalence of MYOPIA in carpet weavers was higher than blue-collar workers. On the contrary, the prevalence of HYPEROPIA in blue-collars workers was more than carpet weavers (p<0.05). The axial length of eye and corneal refractive power in carpet weavers was more than blue-collar workers.Conclusion: According to above results, carpet weavers were more myopic and other blue-collar workers were more hyperopic. This may be the result of NEAR WORK in carpet weavers.
