其他摘要：Introduction: The purpose of our study was to evaluate the frequency of behavioral problem in pre school-aged children with visual problem. Methods: In this expost facto study, which was selected via convenient sampling , 143 children ranging in age from 3-6 years that refer to optometry clinic for routine eye examination were evaluated . After complete ocular exams including evaluation of visual acuity with and without glasses, refraction with and without cycloplegic eye drops; we took written consent from parents, and obtained a detailed history of the children. One parent of each child completed the Conner’s Parent Rating Scale(CPRS). The CPRS scores of children with eye problem (30 cases) were compared with the normative sample (113 cases with normal eye exam) by t-test.We used ANOVA test to determine differences in outcomes between groups. Results: After complete ocular exams in order to diagnosis visual problems in 143 children 77 (54%) boys and 66(46%) girls that participated in our study with a mean age of 5.14 years (SD =3.64), 113 clients were normal, 23patients with refractive error and 7 child had amblyopia. Conclusion: Our results suggest that children ranging in age from 3to 6 years with eye problem have not a higher behavioral problem as measured by the CPRS than normal children. Declaration of Interest: None.
