The purpose of this research project is to develop a vision surveillance system, in order of understanding the vision health status of children and adolescents in Taiwan.
The purpose of this research project is to develop a vision surveillance system, in order of understanding the vision health status of children and adolescents in Taiwan. It can serve as a basis for the government to establish a nationwide vision surveillance system, invest research resources, and make national policies.
This research project also classified the urbanization of sampling school as high, medium and low based on the location of school.This research project explored and analyzed the health status of myopic schoolchildren and associated factors such as families, genetics, school environment, living environment and behaviors among north, south, west and east regions of Taiwan.
