Abstract:Objective To obtain the rate of myopia in children and adolescents in Beijing in 2018, to study and formulate the corresponding prevention and control measures, and to provide baseline data for the evaluation of the effect of comprehensive prevention and control program on myopia in adolescents in the next stage. Methods Primary school, junior high school, and senior high school students were selected as subjects based on stratified cluster sampling, and their distance vision and diopter were tested. The original data were entered directly into EpiData, and the differences in the rate of myopia between gender, region, and different schooling stages were examined using standard Pearson's Chi-squared test. Data analyses were performed by using SPSS 21.0. Results The overall rate of myopia was 59.4%, which was 56.6% in boys and 62.4% in girls and 62.0% in urban areas and 57.8% in suburbs. The difference of myopia detection rate between genders and between urban and suburban areas was statistically significant (P<0.05). The rates of total myopia and high myopia were 38.4% and 1.4% in primary school students, 77.2% and 10.4% in junior high school students, and 88.3% and 20.7% in senior high school students, respectively; the rates of total myopia and high myopia increased statistically with schooling stages(P<0.05). Conclusions The rate of myopia among students in Beijing is high. The current situation of students' myopia needs to be solved urgently. For different stages of students, the prevention and control of myopia should take corresponding myopia intervention measures to control the premature occurrence and rapid development of myopia.
