Abstract

Purpose: To assess the presence of risk factors for ocular hypertension among students inVoronezh and its connection with various types of ametropia.

Material and methods. The present study involved 835 students (454 women, 381 men, 1670 eyes) aged 18 to 27, the average age was 21.2±1.3. Among these students, 442 students (52.9%) had emmetropia, 116 students (13.9%) – hyperopia and 277 students (33.2%) – myopia. The presence of risk factors for the development of glaucoma in medical history was studied using a questionnaire. Complex inspection included visometry, direct ophthalmoscopy, induction-based tonometry.

Results. Slightly more than half of the students in the age group from 18 to 27 years had emmetro-pia, and every fourth had myopia. The IOP level of22 mm Hg and higher was detected using non-contact tonometry in 6.8% of students, 43.9% of them had risk factors for the development of glaucoma. Students with high myopia had 6 times higher risk of glaucoma development compared to those with mild or mode-rate myopia, hyperopia and emmetropia. No reliab-le data on the increase of IOP when comparing it to groups with various types of ametropia was obtained.

Conclusion. According to the screening results of 835 students, the risk factors for glaucoma and other eye diseases were studied and analyzed, refractive errors were revealed, IOP was evaluated with an Icare tonometer, the relation of IOP with ametropia type, visual acuity and visual acuity with habitual correction was studied.
