BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
Ensuring a high level of adherence to wearing spectacles is essential to preserve eye health and achieve optimal vision correction. Comprehending the factors influencing adherence to wearing spectacles can inform strategies to improve eye care outcomes. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and factors influencing adherence to wearing spectacles among Moroccan adults residing the Beni-Mellal Khenifra region.
METHODS
A cross-sectional interview survey was conducted involving 389 adult spectacle wearers. Participants were recruited through a multilevel random sampling technique and interviewed using a structured questionnaire. This questionnaire collected data on demographics, spectacle prescription, usage patterns, and barriers to compliance. Compliance was assessed based on self-reported frequency and duration of spectacle wear according to the prescription. Possible factors influencing the wearing of spectacles were investigated using both univariate and multivariate regression models.
RESULTS
This study revealed that 57.6% of participants adhered to the recommended use of spectacles. Factors associated with compliance were higher education level, longer duration of spectacle use, awareness about the importance of spectacle wear, absence of a family history, specific refractive error types, and increased severity of refractive errors. Participants reported various reasons for not adhering to the recommended use of spectacles, with the most common being forgetfulness, perceiving improved vision without spectacle, discomfort while wearing spectacle, difficulty adapting to spectacle, and loss of spectacle.
CONCLUSION
Given the high prevalence of non-compliance to spectacle wear among adults in the Beni-Mellal Khenifra region, it is evident that additional efforts are required to improve understanding and education regarding the advantages of consistent spectacle usage. Targeted educational and awareness initiatives have the potential to substantially enhance adherence rates and consequently improve visual health outcomes in the region.
背景与目的
确保高度遵守佩戴眼镜的要求对于维护眼部健康和实现最佳视力矫正至关重要。了解影响佩戴眼镜依从性的因素可为改善眼部护理结果的策略提供依据。本研究旨在评估居住在贝尼-梅拉勒-肯尼弗拉地区的摩洛哥成年人中佩戴眼镜的患病率及影响依从性的因素。
方法
对389名成年眼镜佩戴者进行了横断面访谈调查。通过多级随机抽样技术招募参与者，并使用结构化问卷进行访谈。该问卷收集了有关人口统计学、眼镜处方、使用模式和依从性障碍的数据。根据自我报告的按照处方佩戴眼镜的频率和时长来评估依从性。使用单变量和多变量回归模型研究影响佩戴眼镜的可能因素。
结果
本研究显示，57.6%的参与者遵守了推荐的眼镜使用方法。与依从性相关的因素包括较高的教育水平、较长的眼镜使用时长、对佩戴眼镜重要性的认识、无家族病史、特定的屈光不正类型以及屈光不正严重程度增加。参与者报告了不遵守推荐使用眼镜的各种原因，最常见的是健忘、感觉不戴眼镜视力也有所改善、佩戴眼镜时不适、难以适应眼镜以及眼镜丢失。
结论
鉴于贝尼-梅拉勒-肯尼弗拉地区成年人中不遵守佩戴眼镜规定的情况普遍存在，显然需要做出更多努力来增进对持续使用眼镜益处的理解和教育。有针对性的教育和宣传举措有可能大幅提高依从率，从而改善该地区的视觉健康状况。
