Abstract:
Objective To assess the prevalence and binocular dysfunctional risk factors associated with asthenopia among adult myopes.Methods The study population included 800 adult myopes,a cross-sectional visual parameters that characterize the accommodative:accommodation amplitude (AA),accommodative facility,and accommodative response (fused crossed cylinder-FCC) and binocular function (near and distant horizontal and vertical associated phorias,near and distance negative and positive fusional vergence,near point of convergence,negative and positive relative accommodation (NRA/PRA),stimulus AC/A ratio and stereoacuity) were evaluated when these subjects wore adequate spectacle correction.Results Asthenopia was reported in 24.2％ (194/800) of myopes.The incidence of asthenopia in female (27.8％,128/460) was more than that in male (19.4％,66/340),and there was significant difference (P =0.006).In univariate analysis,the monocular AA,binocular AA,NRA and PRA were significantly associated with asthenopia (P =0.000).In multivariate analysis,low NRA (≤1.25 D),low NRA (≤1.50 D) were significant risk factors for asthenopia (P =0.000,OR =7.644 ;95％ CI 2.913-17.580;P =0.000,OR =5.303;95％ CI 2.822-16.205).Conclusion Preventive measures directed against the binocular dysfunctional risks factors associated with asthenopia may help reduce the prevalence and provide a positive impact on asthenopia.
