After we compared the Unaided visual acuity and the Corrected visual acuity who were wearing spectacles, all over elementary school in Iksan, we could get conclusions like these. 1. The grades are getting higher, there are more who are 0.6 unaided visual acuity, and getting higher Corrected who were wearing spectacles. 2. There are 30% who have to change their wearing spectacles. 3. Higher grade separated into good or worth visual acuity then lower grade. 4. When the first grade grow up third grade, change of unaided visual acuity increased at 0.2, decreased 0.7 and 1.0, but the case of fourth grade becomes sixth grade shown a little changes unaided visual acuity.

Purpose: In this study, we analyzed visual acuity of children according to the rearing of the type of parents. Methods: We have done a comparative analysis about before and after of corrected visual acuity according to the wearing actual conditions with the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2010 document. Results: Visual acuity before correction of twoparent family's children was 0.91, single parent family's children was 0.83, grandparents family's children was 0.77 in low income and twoparent family's children was 0.80, single parent family's children was 0.77, grandparents family's children was 0.50 in lower middle income. Conclusions: In the rearing of low-income children, the lack of attention to visual acuity management according to the type of parents leads to a failing of visual acuity in myopia. The role of the parents is very important during this time period, so it is necessary to provide social interest giving decline prevention of vision.

This study surveyed common sense of testing eye vision, feeling of own vision and wearing glasses, and method of wearing glasses using questionnaire for 625 primary student(male 322, female 303) live in Iksan city, Jeon buk Province. The question about the selection of testing vision office answered ophthalmic optics only 12.6% by common sense but 38.8% among testing vision students had been checked the visual acuity in ophthalmic optics. 40% student of all answerer have a poor vision by self-evaluation testing and realized when they look far vision is 46.4% among the poor vision answerer, look black board is 26.0%, look monitor is 18.4%, and reading is 9.9%. 46% answerer of the subjective poor vision who tested eye vision by self-evaluation did not correct eye vision. 48.7% answerer among uncorrect eye vision is because of having no chance to test. The question of effect in wearing glasses answered that the 48% of a1l answerer will be worse the visual acuity, the other is getting better and unchanged eye vision by common sense. The question about how looks like glasses wearer answered that the 45.8% answerer is uncomfortable appearance by common sense. 32.3% answerer of the glasses wearer became a failure wearer because glasses was uncomfortable to fit primary student.

Purpose: This study was to assess prevalence of refractive errors and uncorrected refractive errors in elementary school children in Mokpo and uncorrected refractive errors were to be used as the basic data. Methods: Vision tests were conducted on 400 subjects of 1st~6th grades at 3 elementary schools in Mokpo city, and subjective, objective refraction test were also performed to survey uncorrected refractive errors. Results: The prevalence of myopia was 256, 64% of total subjects, Hyperopia was 21, 5.3%, astigmatism was 19, 4.8%. The prevalence of uncorrected refractive errors were increased as higher grade and more oculus dexter higher than oculus sinister. Conclusions: Vision impairment which need an accurate vision correction for elementary school students requires the regular examination and actively correction in order to protect the elementary school students for basic welfare.

Purpose: The relationship between retinal conditions such as macular thickness and retinal volume of the eyes with central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC) and visual acuity was investigated. Methods: A total of 136 eyes from 78 subjects was divided into 5 groups: CSC eyes under treatment and its asymptomatic contralateral eyes, fully cured CSC eyes after the diagnosis and its contralateral, and normal eyes. Their uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), retinal thickness and retinal volume were further examined. Results: All of UCVA, BCVA, retinal thickness and retinal volume of CSC eyes under treatment were significantly different from those of asymptomatic contralateral eyes, fully cured CSC eyes and normal eyes. BCVA of the asymptomatic contralateral eyes was not significantly different from it of normal eyes, however, its retinal thickness and volume were significantly different from those of normal eyes. Increased degree of retinal volume along with the increase of retinal volume was greater in CSC eyes and its asymptomatic contralateral eyes, fully cured CSC eyes and its contralateral eyes than normal eyes. Conclusions: From the present study, it was revealed that the retinal thickness and volume of asymptomatic contralateral eyes of CSC increase as well as CSC eyes, and the change of BCVA due to CSC occurs only when the retinal thickness and volume increase in some extent.

눈의 시력을 진단하는 도구 또는 장비로는 자각식 측정법인 시력표, 타각식 계측기로는 검영기와 자동굴절력측정기 등이 있다. 이들 방법으로 얻는 결과는 시력 또는 굴절력 값으로 제한된다. 그러나 인체안도 일반 광학계와 같이 공간적으로 불균일한 광학적 특성을 가지기 때문에, 눈의 광학적 기능을 정확하게 진단하기 위해서는 공간에 따른 광학수차 분포를 측정할 필요가 있다. 특히 엑시머레이저를 이용한 굴절각막교정수술에서, 광학수차 정보는 정교한 교정수술을 위한 기초 자료가 될 수 있다. (중략)

According to Korean pharmaceutic law, spectacles is a kind of medical device or instrument that is composed of a front and two temples with a pair of lenses. If the spectacle is not worn, it is a kind of optical device, but if it were worn, it will makes a new optical system to correct ametropia. Therefore, spectacles must be carried on by dispensing opticians.

In this paper, we found out the objective refractive errors, the full corrective refractive powers, and the prescriptions for 64 males and 36 females aged 18 to 26 years. To increase the unaided visual acuity 0.1 to the aided visual acuity 1.0 with the glasses, we needed the spherical equivalent refractive power of -3.00D for male and -2.91D for female respectively. To increase the unaided visual acuity 0.5 to the aided visual acuity 1.0 with the glasses, we needed the spherical equivalent refractive power of -0.5D for male and -1.38D for female respectively. Comparing unaided visual acuity and corrective refractive power, the more one has refractive error the less one has unaided visual acuity but these are not linear relationships. Comparing objective refractive error figures, full corrective refractive power figures and prescriptions, objective refractive error figures are the hightest, followed by full corrective refractive power figures. Prescriptions compared with the other two are lower. The cylindrical refractive powers are less than -2.50D. In this study, with the rule astigmatism is dominant over against the rule astigmatism and oblique astigmatism. The accommodation measured by push up method is 6.75D~10.04D for male and 7.50D~9.60D for female respectively.

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.

For this study we made up a question investigation to analyze a grade of satisfaction and a side effect about the prescription actual condition of contact lens of person with astigmatism among the person who has a error of refraction. The whole patient of refractive error was 46 person, there were 11 person who only wear spectacles by correction of visual acuity among person to a question investigation and 35 person who only wear contact lens. Under investigation 35 person who only wear contact lens, there were 25 person who experience the problem which occurs because of contact lens wearing for a long time. The most patient who made up a question investigation very choose remainder item except for item of very satisfaction. The their reason that could not satisfaction was non corrected astigmatism, wrong prescription, wrong Base curve, out of life span etc.
