Abstract

Purpose: In this study, we analyzed the progression and prevalence of myopia according to age for the last five years. Methods: We have done a comparative analysis of the progression and prevalence of myopia with the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey document from 2008 to 2012. Results: According to classification of myopia by age group for the last five years, the prevalence of low myopia was 25.5% for 5-11ages group, 25.1% for 12-18ages, 27.3% for 19-29ages, 30.7% for 30-39ages, 29.6% for 40-49ages, 19.2% for 50-59ages, 11.8% for 60-69ages, and 20.2% for over 70ages respectively. The prevalence of moderate myopia was 21.7% for 5-11ages group, 43.6% for 12-18ages, 36.2% for 19-29ages, 30.0% for 30-39ages, 20.4% for 40-49ages, 9.9% for 50-59ages, 5.2% for 60-69ages, and 7.6% for over 70ages respectively. The prevalence of high myopia was 2.1% for 5-11ages group, 11.7% for 12-18ages, 11.5% for 19-29ages, 6.9% for 30-39ages, 5.6% for 40-49ages, 1.9% for 50-59ages, 1.5% for 60-69ages, and 1.0% for over 70ages respectively. Conclusions: We must recognize an importance to the increase of the progression and prevalence of myopia, so it is necessary to provide a social interest in prevention of deteriorating vision and eye health welfare.

목적: 본 연구는 최근 5년간 연령에 따른 근시 유병률 진행을 비교 분석하였다. 방법: 보건복지부 산하 질병관리 본부에서 시행한 2008에서 2012년까지의 국민건강영양조사 자료를 통해 근시 유병률 진행을 비교 분석하였다. 결과: 최근 5년간 자료를 통해 근시를 분류하였고, 연령별 분석결과 약도근시 중 5-11세는 25.5%, 12-18세는 25.1%, 19-29세는 27.3%, 30-39세는 30.7%, 40-49세는 29.6%, 50-59세는 19.2%, 60-69세는 11.8%, 그리고 70세 이상에서는 20.2%의 근시유병률이 각각 나타났다. 중도근시 중 5-11세는 21.7%, 12-18세는 43.6%, 19-29세는 36.2%, 30-39세는 30.0%, 40-49세는 20.4%, 50-59세는 9.9%, 60-69세는 5.2%, 그리고 70세 이상에서는 7.6%의 근시 유병률이 각각 나타났다. 고도근시 중 5-11세는 2.1%, 12-18세는 11.7%, 19-29세는 11.5%, 30-39세는 6.9%, 40-49세는 5.6%, 50-59세는 1.9%, 60-69세는 1.5%, 그리고 70세 이상에서는 1.0%의 근시 유병률이 각각 나타났다. 결론: 근시 유병률 진행 증가에 대한 중요성을 인식하여 국민의 안보건복지와 시력저하 방지를 위한 제도적 장치와 사회적 관심이 더욱 필요할 것을 판단된다.
