青光眼知晓度研究进展

青光眼是全球主要的致盲眼病之一,由于其发病相对隐匿,若不急性发作,不易被发现,故其致盲率相当高.90％以上的青光眼患者并不了解此病,提高人们对青光眼的知晓度,有利于青光眼患者更早地发现疾病,避免不可挽回的视觉损失.提高人们对青光眼的知晓度是早期发现、早期诊断、及时治疗、挽救青光眼患者残存视功能的有效途径.国内外许多学者对青光眼知晓度做了一定的研究.本文从青光眼知晓度的现状、获得青光眼知识的途径、影响青光眼知晓度的相关因素、青光眼知晓度对心理障碍及生存质量的影响、主动学习和健康教育方式对知晓度的影响几个方面,就近年来关于青光眼知晓度的相关研究进行综述.

Research progress of awareness of glaucoma

Glaucoma is one of the major causes of blindness worldwide.The symptom of glaucoma is not obvious and the rate of blindness is quite high in glaucoma.Over 90％ of the glaucoma patients were unaware about the disease.Increasing awareness of glaucoma will promote the patients to find the sign of glaucoma and will thereby prevent blindness due to glaucoma.Increasing awareness of glaucoma is the most effective way of early detection,early diagnosis,timely treatment and rescuing surviving visual function in glaucoma patients.Many scholars have done a lot of researches on awareness of glaucoma.This article reviewed recent researches on the awareness of glaucoma,including the actuality of glaucoma awareness,the way to get the knowledge of glaucoma,the factors affecting the awareness,the influence of awareness on psychological barriers and the quality of life,and the impact of learning and health education on awareness.
