OPTICAL INDICES OF EYES REFRACTIVE FORCE IN GIRLS AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOL AGE
One of leading reasons of the worsening of the vision into the distance at the school age is myopic refraction formation.Aim. With the purpose of estimation of the state of visual functions the following optical indexes of eyes were studied: refractive force of cornea, radius of curvature of front surface of cornea, dynamic refraction and sight sharpness.Methods and results. 112 girls (224 eyes) at the middle school age were included into the study. It was determined that vision into the distance got worse with the increase of the age in 80% of the cases. The dynamic refraction changed (miopisation), cornea refractive force increased, the radius of curvature of front surface of cornea decreased.Conclusion. This testified the necessity of the rehabilitation with the purpose to improve vision.
