초록

목적: 현행법상 음주 단속의 측정기준이 되는 호흡 알코올 농도(BrAC) 증가가 시력과 타각적 굴절검사 값에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 23명의 20대 남성(평균연령 $21.17{\pm}2.19$세, BMI $22.09{\pm}2.16$)을 대상으로 호흡 알코올 농도 0%, 0.05%, 0.08%에서 원 근거리 시력검사와 개방형 자동굴절력계를 이용한 타각적 굴절검사를 시행하였다. 결과: 호흡 알코올 농도가 증가할수록 원거리 시력은 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였고 근거리 시력은 변화하지 않았다. 또한 호흡 알코올 농도가 증가할수록 타각적 굴절검사 값은 (-) 방향으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 결론: 음주로 인한 호흡 알코올 농도 증가는 교정시력의 감소와 교정굴절력이 (-) 방향으로 증가하는 원인이 될 수 있으므로 시력검사와 굴절검사는 비음주상태에서 진행해야 할 필요성이 있다.

Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate effects of increased breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) which is the standard measurement of alcohol consumption in sobriety test under current laws on visual acuity and values of objective refraction. Methods: For twenty three males in 20s (average age $21.17{\pm}2.19$ years, body mass index (BMI) $22.09{\pm}2.16$) were selected. Distance and near visual test was performed at BrAC of 0%, 0.05% and 0.08%, and objective refraction with open-field auto-refractometer was also performed at different BrAC. Results: As breath alcohol concentration is increased, distance visual acuity was decreased, which was statistically significant, but near visual acuity was not changed. Also, values of objective refraction tended to be increased towards minus as breath alcohol concentration is increased. Conclusions: As breath alcohol concentration is increased, corrected visual acuity is decreased and refractive power is towards minus, it is necessary that visual acuity test and refraction measurement should be conducted under sober condition.
