DETEKSI DINI GANGGUAN PENGLIHATAN BINOKULER DAN PENYULUHAN PEMILIHAN LENSA TEPAT BAGI SANTRI PESANTREN SIRNARASA KABUPATEN CIAMIS

Abstract

Counseling and eye health examination at Sirnarasa Islamic Boarding School, Ciamis Regency, was conducted to determine the relationship between the lens focal point and binocular vision of students. This activity aims to diagnose refractive disorders and provide an understanding of the importance of vision examinations to prevent further visual impairment. Data were obtained from refractive examinations conducted on 69 students at Sirnarasa Islamic Boarding School, Ciceuri Hamlet, Ciomas Village, Panjalu District, Ciamis Regency, West Java Province. The results of the examination showed a significant prevalence of refractive disorders, with astigmatism as the most common refractive disorder found (31.18%), followed by myopia (6.52%) and hypermetropia (4.34%). In addition, 40.58% of students were diagnosed with presbyopia, while 5.06% were diagnosed with suspected organic disorders, such as cataracts and amblyopia. These findings highlight the importance of refractive examinations and treatment of refractive disorders at a young age, especially in the context of binocular vision. The results of this activity are expected to provide new insights for related parties in formulating community-based eye health policies to improve the quality of vision of students and prevent long-term impacts of undetected refractive disorders. Further intervention through the use of corrective lenses according to the right focal point can help improve the quality of life of students.
