Abstract

Visual impairment due to refractive errors remains a public health problem in remote and coastal areas, including Tidung Island, Thousand Islands, as well as impoverished urban areas such as Papanggo Village, North Jakarta. Limited access to optometric services and low awareness of routine eye examinations result in many undetected cases. This community service program aimed to conduct early detection of visual impairment and refractive error examination, as well as to provide corrective, protective, or reading glasses to those in need. The methods included eye health education, visual acuity screening, objective and subjective refraction examinations by optometrists, and spectacle dispensing. The activities were carried out on March 7–8, 2024, in Tidung Island and Papanggo Village, with 461 participants. The results showed that the highest prevalence of refractive error was astigmatism (33.8%), followed by myopia (13.0%) and hypermetropia (12.1%). A total of 247 individuals (53.6%) were diagnosed with presbyopia. A total of 418 people (90.7%) received spectacles according to their needs. In conclusion, this program successfully detected refractive errors and provided large-scale spectacle intervention, thereby expected to improve the quality of life and productivity of the community
