  • Objectives: Since 80% of the information we get from the environment comes in through our eyes (Anshel JR, 1999), uncorrected visual problems negatively affect children's educational process and perceptual development. The objectives of this study were: 1st, to document the prevalence of learning related vision problem in primary school children. 2nd, to compare responses of children with those of parents on visual symptoms. Lastly, to determine if there is an association between visual symptoms and academic performance. Methods: We administered visual-symptom quality of life questionnaire developed by Oklahoma College of Optometry in Vision Development to 1031 primary school children and their parent. Visual symptoms responded by children and their parents were compared using Independent Sample t-test and the relation between visual symptoms and academic performance were calculated using Pearson Correlation tests. Results and Conclusions: The number of children who need further professional evaluation, that is visual-symptom scores were ${\geq}20$, reported by children(25%) was greater than that reported by parents(16%). And visual-symptom scores reported by children were significantly higher than those reported by parents in every grade(p<0.01, p<0.001). Visual symptoms reported by both children and parents were found to be inversely correlated to academic performance in every academic area and most of their correlations were statistically significant(p<0.05). Therefore, children with more visual-symptom reported by both group had negative effects on children's academic performance.

  • 모형안은 안구의 굴절력 교정 수술이나 콘택트렌즈, 안경 등 시력 보정을 위한 기구를 설계하는 등, 다양한 목적아래서 안구의 시성능을 최적모델링 하기 위해 발전해 왔다. 특히, 안구의 가변적인 굴절능 조절 과정을 내포하는 모형안을 세우고, 환경변화에 따른 모형안의 광학 성능을 정확하게 모델링하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구는 사람 안구가 단계적으로 굴절능 조절을 행할 때 기존의 해부학적 광학형상 변화를 포함하고 안구의 파면수차와 조절반응을 고려한 모형안을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 모형안은 조절자극의 세기에 따른 조절반응 부족량, 3차와 4차 수차, 변조전달함수, 시력 등이 제시되었으며, 그 모형안을 바탕으로 계산한 결과 값은 실제 안구에서 측정한 값들을 만족하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 모형안은 조절의 단계적 변화에 따른 안구의 광학적 성능과 변조저달 함수의 계산, 사람 눈의 시성능 변화를 보다 정확하게 예측하는데 좋은 도구를 제공할 것이다.

  • 본 연구는 맥동전자장이 고지혈증 관련 혈액 성분, 항산화 효소와 활성 산소에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 관찰하기 위하여 실시하였다. 실험군은 정상식이군, 고지방식이군과 고지방식이-맥동전자장 적용군의 3군으로 나누었다. 맥동 전자장은 맥동 전자장 에너지 치료기를 이용하였다. 혈액 성분의 검사 항목은 혈당, 유리지방산, 중성지방 및 콜레스테롤, 인슐린이고, 항산화 효소와 활성 산소의 검사는 글루타치온, 글루타치온 환원효소, 크산틴, 과산화지질을 측정하였다. 그 결과 맥동전자장 적용은 혈액 구성성분과 GSH와 GRD를 고지장식이 수준에서 정상식이 수준으로 상승시켰으며, XO와 MDA는 고지방식이 수준에서 정상 식이 수준으로 낮추어 주는 개선효과를 나타내었다. 그러므로 맥동전자장의 적용은 고지혈증 흰쥐의 혈액성분의 변화, 항산화 효소의 증가, 활성 산화의 억제에 효과적인 치료 방법이라 할 수 있다.

  • 본 연구는 일상생활 속 개인적 특성에 따른 안경렌즈 흠집과 교체주기를 조사해 보고자 하였다. 본 연구에 자발적으로 참여한 58명을 연구대상자로 하였으며, 안경착용 시 속눈썹의 안경렌즈 접촉 여부, 1일 안경렌즈 닦는 횟수, 안경렌즈를 닦는 종류에 따른 안경렌즈 교체주기를 분석하였다. 통계분석은 X2 검정과 Fisher의 정확도 검정을 하였다. 안경렌즈의 평균 교체주기는 남자보다 여자가 긴 것으로 나타났으며, 속눈썹이 안경렌즈에 접촉되는 경우, 안경수건이 아닌 휴지나 옷 등을 사용하여 안경렌즈를 닦는 경우에 안경렌즈 교체주기가 유의하게 짧게 나타났다. 안경렌즈의 코팅막은 속눈썹이나 일상생활 속의 사소한 부주의등과 같이 융복합적 영향으로 손상이 발생할 수 있다는 것을 확인한 바, 이 결과에 대한 후속연구를 이어가고자 한다.

  • Purpose: This study was to investigate the relationship between the palpebral fissure and the exophthalmos in an elder women population in Korea subjects with normal eye status. Methods. From November 2014 to July 2015, The author analyzed the morphological values in 81 Korean elder women population. The clinical test was performed using the Hertel exophthalometer and verner califer. Analysis of data were described using the spss 20 and Pearson's test. Results. The mean age of the 81 subjects (162 eyes) was (73.938+/8.585)mm. The mean value of palpebral fissure was (5.673+/-2.065)mm in width and (24.179+/-4.409)mm in height. The mean value of exophthalmos was (5.537+/-2.151)mm. There were a significant relationship(P>0.01) in the mean size between the width and height in palpebral fissure. Also, there were a significant relationship(P>0.01) in the mean size between the palpebral fissure width and exophthalmos. Also, there were a significant relationship(P>0.01) in the mean size between the palpebral height width and exophthalmos. However, there were not significant relationship(P>0.01) in the mean size between the palpebral fissure width and exophthalmos in right eye. On the other hand, The relationship between right eye and left eye of the palpebral fissure and exophthalmos was similar results. Conclusions. In this study, these results suggested that the palpebral fissure and exophthalmos was a significant relationship in the mean value of morphologic characters in Korean elder women population.

  • Purpose. This study was to investigate the analysis of the central corneal thickness and anterior chamber depth of eyes in Korean Young Population using the Pentacam topography. Methods. The subjects consisted of 126 eyes from normal cornea of Korean aged 7-12($8.857{\pm}1.501$) years during 2009. The thinnest location, pachy apex, and pupil central region of the cornea thickness was measured using the Pentacam pachymetry. The anterior chamber depth of normal corneas was measured with Pentacam. Results. The thinnest location of corneal thickness was $547.413{\pm}37.893$um. The pachy apex of cornea thickness was $552.103{\pm}36.016$um. Also, the pupil center of corneal thickness was measured $552.143{\pm}36.418$um. On the other hand, the mean thickness in the central cornea was a statically significant relationship(t-test, p=0.0002) between pachy apex and thinnest zone. Also the mean thickness of the central cornea was a statically significant correlation(pearson p=0.0001) among the pupil center, pachy apex and thinnest zone. The anterior chamber depth was $3.137{\pm}0.308$mm. The mean depth in the anterior chamber of cornea was a statically relationship(t-test, p>0.05) between OD and OS. Conclusions. The results of this clinical study suggested that the analysis of the central corneal thickness and anterior chamber depth using Pentacam in Korean young population can provide the useful morphological information in diagnosis of cornea for the contact lens fitting and corneal refraction surgery.

  • Purpose. A huge proportion of adults in korea, workers chronic disease risk factors have been growing every year, these are closely related to oral health. thus, through the study of the relationship between workers oral health behavior and chronic disease risk factors. Methods. The subjects were 4,600 workers volunteering at the oral health education program part of the industrial health education of some area work places. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, chi-square test, Rogistic regression analysis. Results. The results of chronic disease risk factor according to oral health practice behaviors show that currently drinking and smoking, not visiting to the dentist for last year, fewer toothbrushing were associated with chronic disease risk factors. This result was statistically significant as well.(p<0.05). Risk factors influencing chronic disease were gender, age, job period, dental clinic visiting, the number of toothbrushing, perceived oral health state, smoking, and drinking, these were statistically significant as well(p<0.05). Conclusions. Chronic disease that could threaten workers health was related with the oral health practice behavior. Therefore through factors identification affecting general health and oral health, dental care providers aims to increase workers awareness of health care behavior and lifestyle and to suggest periodical health education promotion program for high risk workers who exposed to risk factors of disease within workplace.
