Abstract

Objective To investigate the prevalence of myopia in a primary school in Shuangyashan City in recent two years and to make analysis on the influencing factors, so as to reduce the prevalence of myopia in children, as a result, to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of myopia in Shuangyashan City. Methods — A total of 303 school-age children from a primary school in Shuangyashan City were selected for diopter screening, and the situation of myopia in preschool children was investigated. Results The positive rate of 45 myopic children screened out from 303 school-age children stood at 14.85%. The positive rate increased with age. Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in age, mother's history of myopia, distance between books, time of using electronic devices, and time of sleep between myopia and age (P<0.05). On this basis, the data with insufficient sample size were integrated and binary logistic analysis showed that adequate sleep, genetic factors and age were independent influencing factors. Conclusion The incidence of myopia in school-age children is high. It is hoped that school, family and society should strengthen the protection of myopia and jointly carry out prevention and treatment work.
