Abstract

Background and Aim: MYOPIA is the most common REFRACTIVE ERROR in the Asia. Finding about MYOPIA progression and growth of globe in childhood due to rapid change of eyeball is very little. This study was done to determine PREVALENCE and risk factor of MYOPIA.Materials and Methods: To determine PREVALENCE and RISK FACTORS of MYOPIA in rural places of Birjand in random cluster sampling, 326 people (650 eyes) from 4 rural places of Birjand enrolled in this study. The all resident who have more than 5 years and was able to cooperate in biomicroscopic examination of eye and no history of intraocular surgery or eye diseases, participate in this study. The results achieved from above examinations along with demographic data were written in questionnaires and analyzed statistically. (Prevalence, Mean and Standard deviation, X2, t-test).Results: This study showed that %25.5 of participant had MYOPIA, %41.3 emetropia, and %33.1 hyperopia .The PREVALENCE of MYOPIA was equal in both eyes. There was statistical significant relation Between REFRACTIVE ERRORs and age (p=0/001).The PREVALENCE of MYOPIA in the age range of 5-14 years increasingly and in the age range of 25-40 years reached to maximum, but there was no relation ship between REFRACTIVE ERRORs and corneal curvature. Also there was not statistical significant relation ship, the mean corneal curvature according to sex & near work in the right and left eyes has not statistical significant relation.Conclusion: The MYOPIA has not any relation with corneal curvature but it has a statically significant relation with near work.
