BACKGROUND
Albinism causes significant eye morbidity and amblyopia in children. The aim of this study was to determine the refractive state in patients with complete oculocutaneous albinism who were treated at the Gynaeco-Obstetric and Paediatric Hospital, Yaoundé, Cameroon and evaluate its effect on vision.
METHODS
We carried out this retrospective study at the ophthalmology unit of our hospital. All oculocutaneous albino patients who were treated between March 1, 2003 and December 31, 2011 were included.
RESULTS
Thirty-five patients (70 eyes) diagnosed with complete oculocutaneous albinism were enrolled. Myopic astigmatism was the most common refractive error (40%). Compared with myopic patients, those with myopic astigmatism and hypermetropic astigmatism were four and ten times less likely, respectively, to demonstrate significant improvement in distance visual acuity following optical correction.
CONCLUSION
Managing refractive errors is an important way to reduce eye morbidity-associated low vision in oculocutaneous albino patients.
背景
白化病会导致儿童出现严重的眼部疾病和弱视。本研究的目的是确定在喀麦隆雅温得妇产科和儿科医院接受治疗的完全性眼皮肤白化病患者的屈光状态，并评估其对视力的影响。
方法
我们在本院眼科开展了这项回顾性研究。纳入了2003年3月1日至2011年12月31日期间接受治疗的所有眼皮肤白化病患者。
结果
纳入了35例（70只眼）诊断为完全性眼皮肤白化病的患者。近视散光为最常见的屈光不正（40%）。与近视患者相比，近视散光和远视散光患者在进行光学矫正后远距离视力显著改善的可能性分别低四倍和十倍。
结论
处理屈光不正问题是降低眼皮肤白化病患者因眼部疾病导致低视力的重要方法。
