The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of common refractive errors în children investigated at the "Louis Turcanu" Hospital's Ambulatory from Timisoara. This was a cross-sectional study done from January to June 2002 în the Ophthalmologic Medical Office. The target group was those of children from Timis County. We examined 646 children with a mean age of 10.7 years (from 0 to 18 years). A cycloplegic refraction examination was performed on all the children, using a computerized Humphrey-Zeiss autorefractometer. The statistical analysis was performed using CDC's Epi Info 2002. în the analysis, we used the Odds Ratio, the exact Fisher test and the chi-squared test. Among the 646 children, 407--63% (CI95 = 59.1-66.7) had refraction errors, of which 1.5% (CI95 = 0.8-2.9) were myopic whereas 49.8% (CI95 = 45.9-53.8) were hyperopic. Astigmatism was found în 11.8% (CI95 = 9.4-14.6). The study showed higher prevalence for the 14-16 age, emphasizing the importance of these examinations.
该研究的目的是评估在蒂米什瓦拉“路易·图尔卡努”医院门诊部接受检查的儿童中常见屈光不正的患病率。这是一项于2002年1月至6月在眼科医务室进行的横断面研究。目标群体是蒂米什县的儿童。我们检查了646名平均年龄为10.7岁（年龄范围从0到18岁）的儿童。使用电脑化的汉弗莱-蔡司自动验光仪对所有儿童进行了睫状肌麻痹验光检查。使用美国疾病控制与预防中心的Epi Info 2002进行统计分析。在分析中，我们使用了比值比、精确费舍尔检验和卡方检验。在这646名儿童中，407名——占63%（95%置信区间为59.1 - 66.7）有屈光不正，其中1.5%（95%置信区间为0.8 - 2.9）为近视，而49.8%（95%置信区间为45.9 - 53.8）为远视。散光的发现率为11.8%（95%置信区间为9.4 - 14.6）。该研究表明14 - 16岁年龄段的患病率更高，强调了这些检查的重要性。
