目标:折射错误,弱视,斜视,与听力障碍儿童相比,低视力在听力障碍儿童中更为常见。忽视视觉障碍会给这些孩子带来教育和社会问题。本研究旨在评估屈光不正的患病率,弱视,斜视,克尔曼沙的听力受损和聋哑学生视力低下。
方法:共有79名7-20岁(平均年龄15.01±2.72岁)的聋哑和听障学生接受了验光检查,包括自动折射,视网膜镜检查,检眼镜,裂隙灯,视敏度测量,和遮盖-揭开测试。那些需要进一步评估的人被转诊到伊玛目霍梅尼医院的眼科诊所。
结果:关于屈光不正的患病率,32名(40.5%)受试者有一种或多种屈光不正,其中最常见的是散光(36.7%),其次是弱视(15.1%)。最常见的斜视类型是潜在斜视(异斜视)(88.6%),其次是外照菌(81%)。此外,3例(3.7%)有眼球震颤。弱视患病率和听力损失程度之间存在显着差异(P=0.026)。其他病例无明显差异。
结论:所获得的结果证明,屈光不正,弱视,斜视,与正常儿童相比,聋哑儿童和听力受损儿童的低视力更为普遍,因为聋哑儿童和听力受损儿童无法传达他们的视力问题,需要通过增强视力来弥补他们的听力不佳,忽视这些疾病会给这些孩子带来严重的教育和社会问题。因此,眼睛筛查检查对聋哑和听障儿童至关重要。
OBJECTIVE: Refractive errors, amblyopia,
strabismus, and low vision are more common among children with hearing impairments in comparison with their hearing peers. Neglecting visual disorders can pose educational and social problems for these children. The present study aimed to assess the prevalence of refractive errors, amblyopia,
strabismus, and low vision among hearing-impaired and deaf students in Kermanshah.
METHODS: A total of 79 deaf and hearing impaired students within the age range of 7-20 years (mean age of 15.01 ± 2.72) underwent optometric examinations, including autorefractometry, retinoscopy, ophthalmoscopy, slit lamp, visual acuity measurement, and cover-uncover test. Those who needed further evaluation were referred to the Ophthalmology Clinic of Imam Khomeini Hospital.
RESULTS: Regarding the prevalence of refractive errors, 32 (40.5%) subjects had one or a combination of refractive errors, the most common of which was astigmatism (36.7%), followed by amblyopia (15.1%). The most common type of
strabismus was latent
strabismus (heterophoria) (88.6%), followed by exophoria (81%). Moreover, 3 (3.7%) cases had nystagmus. A significant difference was observed between the prevalence of amblyopia and the degree of hearing loss (P = 0.026), and no significant difference was detected in other cases.
CONCLUSIONS: As evidenced by the obtained results, refractive errors, amblyopia,
strabismus, and low vision are more prevalent among deaf and hearing-impaired children compared to normal children because deaf and hearing-impaired children are not able to convey their vision problems and need to compensate for their poor hearing with an enhanced sense of sight, inattention to these disorders can present these children with serious educational and social problems. Therefore, eye screening examinations are of paramount importance in deaf and hearing-impaired children.
