At the first stage of ophthalmologic dispensarization of population 1287 rural (535 men) and 1328 urban (648 men) inhabitants have been examined. A comparative analysis of pathology of the eye, the state of visual acuity in different age contingents of rural and urban population, aged from 17 to 79 years, has shown pathology of the eye among rural population in 56.88 and among urban--in 35.17% of cases. Normal visual acuity (with correction) was observed more frequently (921.09 per 1000 eyes) in persons living in a town than in inhabitants of villages (779.33 per 1000 eyes). This index is remarkably lower in persons above 49 years of age because of development of such diseases as senile cataract, pathology of the retina and the optic nerve, etc. Practical blindness among rural population was observed much rarer (6.78 per 1000 eyes) than among rural population (8.95 per 1000 eyes). The incidence of the same pathology in similar age groups of different contingents of adult population was different. This should be considered when organizing dispensary observation over rural and urban population.
在对居民进行眼科门诊检查的第一阶段，对1287名农村居民（535名男性）和1328名城市居民（648名男性）进行了检查。对年龄在17至79岁的农村和城市不同年龄组人群的眼部病理、视力状况进行的比较分析表明，农村人群中眼部病理发生率为56.88%，城市人群中为35.17%。在城镇居住的人（每1000只眼921.09例）比农村居民（每1000只眼779.33例）更频繁地观察到正常视力（矫正后）。由于诸如老年性白内障、视网膜和视神经病变等疾病的发展，该指标在49岁以上人群中明显较低。农村人群中的实际失明发生率（每1000只眼6.78例）比城市人群（每1000只眼8.95例）罕见得多。不同成年人群类似年龄组中相同病理的发生率不同。在对农村和城市人群进行门诊观察时应考虑到这一点。
